Decent dump-and-go soup. Great for busy nights.

I’ve been making this soup for years. It is delicious and there is no reason to change the recipe. I do add the cooked tortellini in the bowl before adding the soup. Everyone I’ve served it to have requested the recipe.

Good and sooooo easy. My husband really liked. I only used 1/2 package of tortellini and it was plenty. Might add some fresh basil next time.

I have made it exactly as the recipe and enjoyed it. But now I do cook up italian sausage and burger with onion and garlic that I add to the recipe to make it more hearty and use a full bag of frozen tortellini. My family loves the recipe!

Love this soup! I started by cooking chopped onions and garlic in olive oil. I didn’t have any sun dried tomatoes, I put in an extra can of tomato soup and ? cup of pasta sauce. I used orzo instead of tortellini to save on the cheesy calories.

This was pretty good, I have made it twice now and the second time I added fresh onion and garlic, a package of baby spinach and a pint of home canned tomatoes to the original recipe.Smells great cooking and is now in the cookbook. Thanks for sharing!

This was very good. I used a dried cheese tortellini, which worked out fine. I also added a couple of tablespoons of tomato paste which really enhanced the tomato flavor. Garlic bread on the side was a great addition. Will be making this often!

I have made this soup numerous times now, though cut back the amounts as there is just me. Another ingredient you may want to try to change it up a lot but tastes wonderful, is to add drained and rinsed canned crabmeat. It is really great.
