Basil Tortellini Soup



Fall weather is just around the corner,
and this week we have had a bit of a taste
of the cooler weather to come.

The fresh cooler weather
plus some crisp fresh basil from a friend
prompted me to make this new recipe -
my first hot soup meal of the season.

Fresh chopped tomatoes from our garden,
cheese tortellini, and fresh basil ...
these ingredients and a few more
made a very tasty soup!

(Note: This recipe from Taste of Home lists that the yield is 6 servings; I would say that it is more like 3 servings, especially if used as the main dish.)
