Tortellini Soup

This is one of my absolute favorite soups. I have fond memories of my mom making this soup for me and it just warming my soul. When I came to college, this soup became a staple because it does not use a lot of expensive ingredients, it makes A LOT of soup, and it is very quick & easy.
