Tomato-Tortellini Soup

Tortellini are ring-shaped pasta, someone described them as "navel shaped", so now their alternative name is "belly button" (ombelico). You can buy them made up in the freezer section. Filled with either cheese or meat they are usually served in broth, either beef or chicken. However here you will find it is perfect for this creamy soup, perfect for a chilly autumn day!

Yes, you could make these little pastas yourself, but honestly, who has the time? Especially when buying them is so cheap & easy. I LOVE “cheap & easy” and endeavor to be so every chance I get!

Ingredients:

2 14 ounce cans reduced-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth

• 9 ounce package refrigerated tortellini
  

• ½ 8 ounce tub cream cheese spread with chive and onion
  

• 1 10 3/4 ounce can condensed tomato or tomato bisque soup
  

Directions

1. In a medium saucepan, bring broth to boiling. Add tortellini; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
   

2. In a bowl, whisk 1/3 cup of the hot broth into the cream cheese spread until smooth. Return all to saucepan along with tomato soup; heat through. Sprinkle with chives before serving. Makes 4 servings.
