Tortellini Soup – Version 2
This is a creamy Tortellini Soup that is a meal all by itself. I used frozen Swiss chard that we grew in our garden but you can also use frozen spinach. This soup is filled with carrots, onions, celery, garlic, Swiss chard, five cheese tortellini and a creamy chicken broth topped off with freshly grated parmesan cheese…..so good!
Ingredients – I also used nutmeg and freshly grated parmesan cheese, not shown.
Place the oil in a large stock pot. Add the diced carrots, onions, celery and garlic.
Cook over medium heat until the vegetables are tender.
Add the frozen Swiss chard (or spinach) breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
Continue to cook until the Swiss chard is hot.
In a medium pot, boil tortellini according to the package directions but only cook half the time it says. Drain and set aside.
Mix the soup into the vegetables.
Add the water, chicken broth, nutmeg and stir well.
Add the tortellini. Heat through and serve.
