This tortellini soup is one of those that I would have skipped right over if my friend, Heather, hadn’t made it for me one day for lunch. She knows I love soup, and so she whipped this up while also being a full-time mom to 3 little ones at the time. It was delicious and quick! It has become a repeat in our home – my kids enjoy it and it is filling! It is a one-pot meal, but you can always add bread and a side salad if you like!
