Instructions *** 1-1-22 trying to replicate some we had at vals, this wasn't it, good but way to thick, added 15 oz can tomato puree and 1/2 cup veg broth, still to thick and probablt too many tortallini *** Total Time Prep: 25 min. Cook: 6-1/4 hours Makes 18 servings (4-1/2 quarts) When my family tried this soup, they all had to have seconds, and my husband is happy any time I put it on the table. Sometimes I include cooked, crumbled bacon and serve it with mozzarella cheese. —Christina Addison, Blanchester, Ohio T Ingredients 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 medium onion, chopped 3 medium carrots, chopped 5 garlic cloves, minced 3 cans (28 ounces each) crushed tomatoes, undrained 1 carton (32 ounces) vegetable broth 1 tablespoon sugar 1 teaspoon dried basil 1 bay leaf 3 packages (9 ounces each) refrigerated cheese tortellini 3/4 cup half-and-half cream Shredded Parmesan cheese and minced fresh basil Buy Ingredients Powered by Chicory Directions In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat.

I made cheesy garlic bread and a green salad for a cozy dinner on a very cold day. The soup is flavorful and delicious... Reply 1 bonnie.reynolds 18 February, 2019 This was very good! Next time I will add more veggies and use a stick blender before adding the tortellini. I also used frozen and thawed before using. No fresh basil here yet; using pesto is inspired! Reply 1 annrms 15 February, 2019 We greatly enjoyed this recipe. I prepared 1 cup frozen tortellini as it is more budget friendly. I didn't have fresh basil so I used a small amount of prepared pesto in each serving. I froze the other 2/3rds of the soup and will add more cooked tortellini when serving...probably with fresh basil ...See more Reply 1 1 Powered by TermsPrivacyFeedback This recipe published with BigOven, and can be imported instantly by BigOven users.
