ONE-POT TOMATO AND BASIL TORTELLINI SOUP – RECIPES DIARIES Oh, hey there gorgeous tortellini! I am a tortellini loving kind of gal. If it were up to me, I would indulge in it every single day, if I could. No one’s stopping me. So I may just take myself up on the offer. Sounds delicious and comforting. Wouldn’t you say so? If you have never added three-cheese tortellini to your soup, or even Ragu, you are truly missing out. I’m not kidding at all. The tortellini soaks up the flavor, and each bite of tortellini contains so much flavor, you would be surprised. The following day, they will soak up so much of the liquid, it almost looks like a decadent scoop of sauce scattered on top. The addition of Ragu adds the perfect touch for a quick and easy meal. As you know, I love quick and easy one-pot meals! Who doesn’t? Growing up, my dad would always pick up clever things while watching a walk to the local grocery store for dinner, and I always loved those trips. They always contained saucy, carb, cheesy meal! While I was making this soup, my mind started to drift into those great memories. Got to love family traditions.
