I’ve been making this recipe for years. Its a spin on the tortellini soup that my mother used to make my siblings and I when we were kids. Hers was a bit more simple but also incredibly delicious.
I just took her concept and jazzed it up a bit. Thanks Mom!
I hope you give this recipe a try. I know that if you do, you’ll love it just as much as my family and I do.

What would you suggest to use to thicken the broth up a little bit? More like a chowder consistency?
