So easy and so tasty! I really liked the crisp, but it was soft as soon as I put it in the broth. I have never had tortellini served in broth before, but it is very good. Make sure that you use a good quality broth! Made for my adopted chef for Fall Pac 2009. Thanks! :) -
The soup was pretty basic, but the cheese crisps were tasty! I had to keep myself from eating all of them before the soup was done. Thanks!
