RUSTIC ITALIAN TORTELLINI SOUP
My DD found this in a recent issue of Taste of Home Healthy Cooking and made it for dinner. Although she subbed a combo of hot and mild sausage for the turkey links, it turned was great! Paired with Italian bread this was a filling and hearty soup, especially good on this raw, rainy Sunday night.

RUSTIC ITALIAN SOUP
Finding some beautiful red, yellow and orange bells at the store yesterday was the inspiration for this soup. So delicious, it garlicky, cheesy, and a little bit of heat!
