Chicken And Tortellini Florentine Soup Recipes

CHICKEN TORTELLINI FLORENTINE SOUP

Steps:

• In a large stockpot cook the tortellini according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
• In the same pan combine the broth and Alfredo sauce. You can use store bought broth and Alfredo sauce or homemade. Either way it will turn out great. Stir in the chicken and tomato strips. Heat to boiling and then reduce the heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
• Add the cooked tortellini and spinach. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes to heat through and wilt the spinach.Even after making this I felt that it needed just a little more liquid. So as not to lose the creamy texture I added heavy cream until I got the consistency I was looking for. Milk or broth would also work.
• Sprinkle each serving with Parmesan cheese and serve with warm garlic bread.
