Tortellini Recipes
I have seen a few different Tortellini soup recipes lately so I decided to post my own. 🙂 I can’t say that mine is any better than all the others since I’ve only tried my recipe 😉 But it makes a hardy soup which can really be a meal in itself.
This soup starts on the stove by browning sausage and then everything goes into the crock pot. The tortellini and mushrooms go in last. You can serve this soup with a side salad and some nice crusty Italian bread.
