SWISS CHARD AND TORTELLINI SOUP
Swiss chard is a wonderful green that often gets overlooked. It has a slightly sweet flavor and a firm texture. The combination of Swiss chard, mushrooms and tortellini makes for a hearty and delicious soup. Serve this with garlic rubbed croutons for a filling and comforting meal. The better than bouillon makes for a nice flavor but you could always use chicken broth for this soup if you're not vegetarian:-)

Steps:
- Heat a stockpot with the olive oil. Add the pepper flakes, rosemary, salt, onion, bell pepper and garlic. Saute until the onions are just beginning to color and add the mushrooms. Saute for about five minutes or until the mushrooms are losing their liquid.
- Add the Swiss chard and the better than bouillon and cook until the swiss chard is starting to wilt, about three or four minutes.
- Add the vegetable broth and bring to a gentle boil.
- When the soup is gently boiling add the tortellini.
- If using frozen tortellini allow them to cook for about 5 minutes before adding the tomatoes.
- If using fresh let them cook for about 2 minutes before adding the tomatoes.
- Once you've added the tomatoes stir, reduce heat to medium and allow to simmer for about 8 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and add the vinegar, stirring thoroughly.
- Serve in deep bowls sprinkled with the Romano.

Steps:
- For the sauce:.
- Melt butter, stir in flour and cook over low heat without browning the flour. About 5 minutes.
- Remove mixture from heat and when it has stopped bubbling add the wine.
- Return to heat and stir constantly until mixture comes to a boil.
- Add cream and salt and pepper to taste.
- Simmer stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes and taste for seasoning.
- For the pasta:.
- Cook the tortellini to the "al dente" stage-tender but still a little chewy.
- Drain.
- Serve very hot either mixed or topped with the wine sauce per your preference.
- Top with generous amount of the grated Parmesan cheese.
- I like to serve in individual small casserole type dishes.
- Will also work with ravioli.
