I found this recipe on Facebook as a slow cooker recipe and the first time I made it I forgot it was slow cooker so I decided to give it a try in just a pot on the stove. It worked great! The kids even ate the soup with no complaints… both times I’ve made it! Personally I’d like to make it with the tomatoes and spinach blended in and next time I may do that by leaving the tortellini out until the end. I HATE chunks of tomatoes and would eat more of this soup if the chunks were blended away.

I had great intentions of sharing more pictures of the soup with you, but unfortunately it is winter in Chicago and by the time the soup was made, the sun was down and I just couldn’t get a good picture to save my life!
Sounds delicious! I’d blend the tomatoes & spinach, too.
This looks like a yummy an easy recipe to veganize. With the recent freezing temps in Georgia, I’ve been eating a lot of soup lately.
This sounds fabulous! I pinned it & I think it will go in the next menu plan. Thanks for sharing.
I’m actually making this on the stove right now, with chicken. My boyfriend doesn’t like tomato chunks either, so i’m subbing a can of tomato paste, as well as doubling the recipe 🙂 It’s a thought if you don’t like the tomato pieces
I’m going to try this! Will try Greek yogurt to sub the cream cheese.
I love tortellini soup, this looks great
This sounds wonderful. Making it right now..
