Tortellini Soup with Sausage

This creamy Tortellini Soup with Sausage will warm your soul on a cold fall night.  Easy to make in less than 30 minutes and a family hit for sure.  

Weeknight dinner prep can be a drag, trust me I know but sometimes it's fun to make something new that's a hit with the family. This Tortellini Soup with Sausage is very family-friendly and savory enough to keep them coming back for leftovers.  My kids love tortellini and sausage so they can generally agree on this one.

This Tortellini Soup with Sausage can be made ahead but I wouldn't add the tortellini until right before you serve it. So make the soup up to that point then refrigerate.  When you are ready to serve, warm up the soup on the stove and add the fresh tortellini.  It only takes a few minutes to cook at that point and the tortellini won't be soggy.
