Even my little boy eats it, and he <em>hates</em> tomatoes and spinach! I've also added ground turkey to it (just brown it with the onions and garlic). I do a very similar one using navy beans in place of the tortellini, too. Soak 2 cups of them overnight in water, rinse, then bring them to a boil and simmer for 2 hours until they're soft. Drain & set aside. Make the rest of the soup as directed and add the beans back in when you'd add the tortellini. That one's even more cost-effective. Hope you enjoy it! It’s a yummy one.

I'm not one for spinach, but I'm willing to try it seeing as how it's going to be cooked and served. Thanks. We need to save all the money we can!
