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

PLEASE don't get your panties in a twist because it's labelled "vegetarian." People who get upset over the slightest thing give us veggies a bad name. And she actually included the chicken broth as the option, not the other way around.
PS - GREAT SOUP! - 12/16/08

So good! It will thicken up when you add pasta. It is a great "cupboard" meal, made with staples you have on hand, and you can substitute easily. - 11/7/13

PLEASE don't call this vegetarian when you include chicken broth. I know, I know..... you're going to say you added the option of vegetable broth but, all the same, call it either vegetarian or NOT vegetarian, and adjust the recipe accordingly. - 11/17/07

I am not a vegetarian but found this soup to be delicious, nutricious and filling. Good to have a healthy recipe that does not always include meat. - 12/29/20

Really good! Not vegetarian -- but tried it w/veggie stock -- I like it! Will try it next time w/chicken stock just to compare, but think I'll stick w/the veggie stock! - 9/20/18

Tasty and so easy to make a great vegetarian dish fast. I used my own veggie stock for the water too. Great meal in a bowl! - 4/23/13

I loved this. My husband loved this. My neighbor loved this & my 5 year old twins loved this. I have made this recipe twice already. Didn't change a thing. - 2/20/12

yum yum yum. made way too much as a single person. five cups worth later and i still have at least 5 cups left. i'll halve the recipe next time since i am only feeding myself. - 2/22/11

Sounds good! The only concern I have is that if you're using 1 oz. of dried pasta per serving, you've used 1 oz. of "cooked" pasta to calculate your ingredients. 1 oz. of dried pasta should be 100 calories per serving instead of the 40 calories per your calculation. Still sounds great! - 11/3/09

Take 1 cold day, add a surplus of autumn veggies and a pantry full of pasta and voila! this was the perfect recipe - it tasted GREAT too! - 10/7/09

Thanks for this wonderful recipe! The soup is so hearty and flavorful. With all the veggies I didn't even miss the meat. I used whole-wheat pasta shells to make it slightly healthier! Great dish!!! - 1/23/08

A little high on the sodium so watch the intake the rest of the day! - 3/18/07

Cut the sodium by using fresh tomatoes, home cooked beans from dry, and homemade vegetable (or chicken) broth. - 3/19/07
