Donna’s Notes

Make-Ahead: The soup base can be made up to 2 days ahead. Add the tortellini just before serving for the best texture.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Reheating: Reheat gently on the stovetop over medium heat. Add a splash of vegetable stock if the soup thickens.
Freezing: Freeze the soup without tortellini for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, reheat, then add fresh tortellini.
Ingredient Notes: Vegetable stock gives fuller flavor than broth. Use low-sodium if you prefer more control over salt. You can substitute your favorite stock (chicken, beef, etc).
