Tortellini Soup a La Sherrie

5.0(8)

Our church has been providing dinner before our Worship time on Sunday nights. My friend Sherrie is part of the cooking teams rotation and she made this fabulous soup for over 100 people. It is good, easy and really fast! I use Trader Joe's Pesto tortellini but any variety will work. You can add diced chicken to the pot if you want a little more protein.
