Cheese Tortellini Soup

A Warm & Hearty Bowl

This cheese tortellini soup comes together in mere minutes, yet it tastes as though it has been simmering on the stove for hours. The tender pasta, bright tomatoes, and aromatic basil create a comforting broth that warms you from the inside out. It is the perfect solution for busy nights when you need something substantial without the effort of a complex recipe.

While this recipe is designed for speed using pantry staples, the foundation of the flavor comes from the broth. For a deeper, richer taste, we highly recommend using The Hearth’s Foundation Traditional Chicken Stock instead of the canned variety. And, of course, no bowl of soup is complete without a crunch to dip into the savory liquid. Serve this alongside our Slow Baked Garlic Toast for a meal that truly satisfies.
