Italian Sausage Soup With Tortellini

My husband got this recipe from this little Italian lady where he goes to buy italian sausage. It is so tasty. The sodium is a bit high but if you use unsalted or low salt broth and tomato options it'll be much better. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.Submitted by: MOMTO5KDS

I tweaked this one quite a bit! I left out the onion (b/c I didnt have one!) and put all the ingredients in a blender and ate it with multi-grain saltine crackers! Quite good. - 3/22/08

Loved the garbonzo bean and lemon idea, but it still needs tweaking. I agree with marcella2007 aboiut the onion. I'd also cut the mustard in 1/2 so it doesn't overpower the other flavors. - 3/24/07

This recipe had too much onion, so reduced it to .5 cup. Otherwise, YUMMY! - 3/15/07
