Ingredients

Scale

For the Soup:

  • 9 oz frozen cheese tortellini
  • 2 cans (10.75 oz each) tomato soup
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups milk (skim preferred)
  • 2 cups half and half
  • 1/2 cup chopped sun dried tomatoes
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp salt

For Serving:

  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese (plus extra for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Tortellini: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the frozen cheese tortellini and cook according to package directions until tender. Drain the tortellini and set aside for later use in the soup.
  2. Prepare the Soup Base: While the tortellini cooks, combine the tomato soup, chicken broth, milk, half and half, chopped sun dried tomatoes, onion powder, garlic powder, dried basil, and salt in a large stock pot. Stir thoroughly to blend all ingredients. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is hot but not boiling.
  3. Add Tortellini to Soup: Reduce heat to low and carefully add the drained cooked tortellini to the hot soup base. Gently stir to evenly distribute the tortellini throughout the soup.
  4. Incorporate Parmesan Cheese: Stir in the shredded Parmesan cheese until melted, making the soup creamy and flavorful. Let the soup heat through for a few minutes without reaching a boil. Reserve some Parmesan for garnish if desired.
  5. Serve: Ladle the creamy tortellini soup into bowls. Sprinkle additional shredded Parmesan cheese on top if desired. Serve hot and enjoy a comforting bowl of cheesy tomato tortellini soup.

Notes

  • Do not let the soup boil after adding dairy and cheese to avoid curdling.
  • Use skim milk and half and half to keep the soup creamy yet lighter in fat content.
  • Save extra Parmesan cheese for garnish to add a fresh cheesy flavor at serving.
  • Sun dried tomatoes add a tangy depth, but you can adjust quantity to taste.
  • This soup is best served fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
