Tips:

Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor, color, and nutrients to your soup. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, spinach, and kale.
Don't overcook the tortellini. They should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked tortellini will become mushy and lose their flavor.
Add some protein. This will make your soup more filling and satisfying. Some good options include cooked chicken, beef, or sausage. You can also add beans or lentils.
Season the soup to taste. This may include adding salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or Italian seasoning. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or vinegar to brighten the flavors.
Serve the soup with a side of bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the broth and make the meal more complete.

Conclusion:

Tortellini soup is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great way to use up leftover vegetables and protein, and it's also a good source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give tortellini soup a try!
