Name: Garlic Tortellini Soup
Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 20 min
Total time: 25 min
Yield: 6 servings (1-1/2 quarts).
Cuisine: Europe, Italian
Ingredients: 1 tablespoon butter; 2 garlic cloves, minced; 3 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth; 1 package (9 ounces) refrigerated cheese tortellini; 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes with green chiles, undrained; 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry

I like to top bowls of this tasty soup with a little grated Parmesan cheese, and serve it with crusty bread to round out the meal. —Donna Morgan, Hend, Tennessee

Ingredients

1 tablespoon butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth
1 package (9 ounces) refrigerated cheese tortellini
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes with green chiles, undrained
1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry

Directions

In a large saucepan, heat butter over medium heat; saute garlic until tender, about 1 minute. Stir in broth; bring to a boil. Add tortellini; cook, uncovered, until tender, 7-9 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and spinach; heat through.

Health Tip: Even though the chicken broth is reduced-sodium, it still adds nearly 600 milligrams of sodium per serving. If you want to cut that back, substitute 5-1/2 cups water plus 3 tsp. reduced-sodium chicken bouillon granules for the broth. That will bring the total sodium to just 636 milligrams per serving.
