Rosemary Tortellini Soup
I love this soup. It’s easy to cook and so delicious. Your home will smell amazing as it cooks. When I’m feeling under the weather, I crave it’s brothy-ness. After a day of snowboarding, it warms you to the core.
If I’m feeling particularly lazy, I’ll grab the prepared mirepoix (fancy for diced onion, celery, carrot) from the grocery store. And I often leave out the rosemary. Why? I don’t know; I just do. And it’s still amazing.
Make it. Enjoy it. Share the recipe with your friends, because it feels like a hug in a bowl. OK, that’s a bit lame, but it’s really good.
