Ingredients
  

For the Soup Base
  • 12 ounces frozen cheese tortellini
  • 1 can tomato soup creamy foundation
  • 2 cups chicken broth for depth
  • 1 cup milk for creaminess
  • 1 cup half and half to elevate creaminess
  • ½ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes adds flavor
For the Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder or fresh garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil for herbaceous flavor
  • 1 teaspoon salt to balance flavors

  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese reserve some for garnish

Equipment

  • large pot
  • stirring spoon

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Boil a large pot of salted water. Cook the frozen cheese tortellini according to package directions until they are tender, typically around 3-5 minutes, then drain and set aside.
  2. In a separate large pot, combine the tomato soup, chicken broth, milk, half and half, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, onion powder, garlic powder, dried basil, and salt. Heat over medium, stirring often until it's hot but not boiling.
  3. Lower the heat and gently stir in the cooked tortellini, allowing them to soak in all that delicious flavor while keeping the heat low.
  4. Incorporate the Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and fully blended into the soup, letting it warm through without boiling for a few minutes.
  5. Serve hot, ladling the soup into bowls and sprinkling with extra Parmesan cheese on top.
