There’s something inherently fun about the shape of tortellini and who doesn’t love a cheese filling?
To make this meal vegetarian use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. For the spaghetti sauce, I like to use Prego or Ragu since they are inexpensive and frequently on sale. But you can use any brand.
Be sure not to overcook the tortellini. You actually want to undercook them some, especially if you are not eating the soup right away. They will continue to cook as the soup sits.
Easy Tortellini Soup is simple, comforting, and delicious. Sprinkle some fresh Parmesan cheese on top and serve with some crusty bread.

Super creamy, easy and delicious soup!
It has been freezing here lately, and by freezing I mean 70 degrees but it is cold me to! All I’ve wanted to do is curl up with a big bowl of soup and sit until a blanket. This soup looks perfect! I love that it is packed with so much goodness so it is probably really filling too!
I love soup season 🙂 This looks amazing!
