Ingredients

5 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided
1/2 pound beef top sirloin steak, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
3 teaspoons butter, divided
1 medium onion, chopped
1 celery rib, chopped
1 medium carrot, chopped

Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Add tortellini; cook 5-10 minutes longer or until tender.
Combine remaining flour and water until smooth. Stir into the pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Yield: 6 servings (2-1/4 quarts).

I loved this soup. So easy. After I brought the veg. to a boil with the soup and tomatoes, I poured it over the tortellini in a crock pot and cooked on high for 3 hours. It thickened on its own so I didn't have to do the last step. Perfect!
