Italian Tortellini Soup

Have you ever found a soup that your kids just gobble right up? Well, in our family this is that soup!

It is comforting, delicious, and simple to make - exactly what I love.

Ingredients:

1 pound italian sausage

1 medium onion - chopped

1/2 tsp basil

1/2 tsp oregano

2 carrots - sliced

1 medium zucchini - halved and sliced

3 cups water

2 cans tomato soup

8 oz. tortellini

Brown sausage and onions in a large pot - I like to use my enameled cast iron dutch oven, it's the perfect size.

Throw in all the remaining ingredients - except the tortellini.

That would be the veggies, seasonings, water, and tomato soup.

Bring it to a boil and reduce the temperature. Allow it to simmer for 15 minutes. Then throw in the tortellini and boil for 10-12 more minutes or until the tortellini is soft.

You can cover this and keep it on a simmer for a longer amount of time. Just remember, DO NOT add the tortellini until the final 10 minutes or else you will have a soggy, gross mess.

This is seriously some good eats - especially if you serve it with some Rosemary Bread....

...Mmm.

Enjoy!
