"Almost" Homemade Soup

TODAY'S FOOD TIP



When you want something hot, filling and quick to prepare for dinner on a cold winter's night, try this Tortellini Soup.

It's "homemade" enough that you can serve it to company, yet easy and quick enough to prepare when friends drop in for dinner at short notice.

Serve it with a loaf of warm, crusty bread like Angel Ale Herb Bread from the Three Angels Gourmet Co. and a tossed salad and you've got dinner. This recipe serves 4.

TORTELLINI SOUP

2 (14.5 oz.) cans chicken broth (like Swanson's)

1 (13 oz.) jar pasta sauce (any flavor)

1 (16 oz.) can great northern beans

1 (9 oz.) pkg. refrigerated tortellini (any flavor)


In a soup pot, mix the chicken broth and pasta sauce. Bring mixture to a boil. Add the beans and tortellini. Boil for 6 minutes, or until the tortellini float and are tender.
