This is a great recipe, the flavors meld so well together. I did add additional chicken broth. It's great as leftovers as well. I have already made this four times since I found the recipe....it's a keeper!

This is a delicious soup. I will add less tortellini for my taste, but it is easy to make and healthy!

The recipe was wonderful. I tend to need more protein in my diet so I added a pound of chicken to round it out. This one is a keeper!

Excellent soup. I added more chicken broth than what is called for in the recipe.

Easy to make, delicious, and filling. I used Italian diced tomatoes (with basil and oregano) and spinach cheese tortellini. Makes great leftovers as well. I served this with breadsticks to complete the meal.

YUM! This soup was so good & so easy. Also, the leftovers made a great lunch the next day. Will definitely be a "keeper" recipe.
