HEARTY TORTELLINI SOUP
While the granddaughters were here, the 12 year old requested tortellini soup. So, she and I went into the kitchen and created a delicious soup from what I had on hand in the pantry and freezer. She took notes, made suggestions and helped with every step. It was such a hit that I promised her I would post the recipe for her so that she could make it for herself when she goes back home. I love my little sous chef!
