Chicken Tortellini Soup

by Barbara on November 13, 2008

Lisa at Jersey Girl Cooks recently had this soup recipe on her blog. It is so easy and delicious, it’s going to be a regular at our house. I didn’t have the spinach it called for and changed it up a bit. I’ve posted my version of the recipe.

I’ll be on vacation until December and probably won’t have time to blog. Although, I am a bit obsessed with checking email on vacation and will probably stop by my blog and read posts. I’ll post all about it when I return. In the meantime, enjoy the soup and thanks for visiting!

Chicken Tortellini Soup

8 cups chicken stock or broth
1 t. onion powder

1 t. garlic powder
1 T. dried parsley
2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
1/2 c. shredded carrots
16 oz package frozen cheese tortellini (I used tri colored)
1/2 c. frozen peas
salt and pepper to taste
grated Parmesan cheese for serving

In a large pot, heat stock until boiling. Add chicken and shredded carrots. When carrots are tender add tortellini. Cook tortellini according to time of package instructions. Add frozen peas. When peas are warm, add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with grated cheese on top. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

This is an exciting recipe; chicken noodle soup pales in comparison to this beauty of a soup :D.

I love tortellini and it looks awesome in this soup. I’ve been craving soups with this wintery weather we’re having right now. I’ll definitely have to try this one!

Love this. Nothing is as comforting on a cold winter’s night in the tundra (MN) than chicken soup. I am going to give this a try.
