I used Recipe #101403 #101403 for the chicken and broth. I love this soup. It's quick, flavorful, and filling. I didn't change anything. Made for Alphabet Soup Game. Thanks for posting a winner Tink! -
Made this for Spring PAC 2012 and we really enjoyed this. I used fresh homemade chicken broth and otherwise followed the instructions. I love totellini so I knew this would be a hit. So easy and tasty. Thank you for submitting. -
While I was a bit free-wheeling with this recipe, I think I stuck to the ingredient list fairly well. I used leftover chicken and reduced the broth to 2 cans, because I was using dried tortellini which I boiled in a separate pan (thinking the tortellini would have absorbed about that much.) That made this a bit more stew-like (which I like.) I also added 2 cooked red potatoes, since I had them on hand and wanted to use them up. They added a nice third color with their red skins. I also sauted the onion, carrots, and garlic in a little olive oil rather than just dumping them into the soup. (I think that kind of takes the edge off the garlic and it shortened the cooking time for the carrots too.) This was quick and easy to prepare, lovely to look at, and tasty too. I enjoyed it.<br/><br/>I think next time I'll add a bit of thyme.

Ok I guess its about time to fill this out.:)
Im 26 yrs old,been married to the greatest guy ever for 5 yrs now,and we have a 3 yr old little girl.
I was born with a medical condition called TAR syndrome. All it means is that I only have 1 bone in each lower arm.(the long bone) Which makes them shorter than average. I could get it fixed but I really dont see the point. Ive lived 26 yrs with them being this way. I really dont know if I could function with longer arms. :) If you have any questions..just ask.
I love this site. Ive been telling everyone about it. Ive really been cooking more because of finding zaar.
I love to read almost anything,scrapbook,making mosaics(just getting started) and photography. I really havent had a whole lot of time for any of these things but Im going to make a effort to slow down and start doing my stuff again. Im also am getting into 4 wheeling with my family.
