The perfect crowd-pleasing soup: Creamy Tomato Tortellini Soup
The cool weather is finally here! We are cozying up to the fireplace and making all of our favorite soups to keep us warm. One soup that never fails to appear on our “cozy” menu is Campbell’s Tomato Soup. My son loves it accompanied by a gooey grilled cheese sandwich. This time, I decided to give his beloved tomato soup a twist by making it a tad bit creamy and adding tortellini pasta.
Because we always have Campbell’s® Tomato Soup in our pantry, the preparation is quick and simple. All you need is a few more pantry ingredients and some milk and cream from the refrigerator. The soup can be enjoyed without the pasta, but if you are feeding a hungry crowd, a little goes a long way when tortellini is added. If you are not a fan of tortellini, add your favorite large noodle pasta, such as ravioli or broken lasagna noodles.

Add this delicious creamy tomato tortellini soup to your winter meal rotation. It will become a family favorite as soon as they taste the first spoonful.
