Tortellini Soup in TWENTY!

Yes, I just posted a tortellini soup about 2 weeks ago! This one takes a little longer to cook, and a little longer to prep, but its packed with veggies, and we have fallen in love with cheese tortellini. So here you go! Another. I like this one a little better, but Nick ranks them exactly the same!

Ingredients:

2 T EVOO
1 whole onion, chopped
2 whole zucchini, chopped
1.5 cups carrots, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
32 ounces chicken broth
9 ounces fresh tortellini
1 cup frozen corn
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Directions:

1. In a large soup pot, heat your oil until hot over medium heat. Add onion, zucchini, carrots and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until onion softens (5ish minutes)
2. Add tomatoes, salt, and pepper


3. Add chicken broth and heat to boiling
4. Next, add in your tortellini and corn. Here is a quick picture of the rainbow cheese tortellini we used!

5. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until tortellini are tender (about 5-6 minutes).
6. Serve with a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese and some fresh chopped basil!



Enjoy :) This is sooo good. A perfect soup after a long day at work!
