Homemade Tortellini Soup

It is one of those things, to covet and enjoy on a cold day or hot day! Tortellini soup is one of my families favorites. I have a great recipe and it is easy to make too. TJ is Trader Joe's, we love them!

Tortellini Soup

Ingredients:

1 box of Trader Joe's tomato soup (for those without a TJ, you need 16oz of a tomato soup, either you make it or use condensed - if condensed you must add water, just fill up the two cans)

1 jar of TJ's Julienne Sun dried tomatoes - optional

2 tbls Olive Oil

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1 pint (2 cups) heavy whipping cream (you can use milk or half and half, it just won't be as rich tasting)

1 tbls Oregano

1 tbls Basil

1 tsp Onion powder

1 tsp Garlic Powder (or 2 garlic cloves)

2 cups Chicken or Vegetable Broth

1 bag of TJ Tortellini Pasta

Topping:

Parmesan cheese

Directions:

If you are using garlic cloves, put them in the pot first with the olive oil, if not add all but the noodles into the pot with the exception of the Parmesan cheese that is for the top. Bring to a boil, add pasta (use directions on the pacakge). 

Serve up in a bowl with some Parmesan cheese topped on it. YUMMY Enjoy!!!!
