One word here! YUM! I did add another can of chicken broth and minced garlic instead of garlic powder. I also used a can of diced Italian tomatoes, omitting the need for the basil. This was a great week night supper. Including cooking time for a crusty loaf of baguette bread, it was ready and on the table in 30 minutes! Perfect for kids because the healthy spinach in this soup takes on an italian flavor.

We really enjoyed this soup. The only change I made was adding fresh spinach. Will make again.

A quick, simple delicious lunch for a cold day. I've made it as written and with vegetable broth and it's super both ways. Cheese/garlic tortellini adds some flavor. BTW, I don't bother defrosting the spinach. It thaws and cooks in the pot.

We enjoyed this very much. I followed previous suggestions and cooked the tortellini ahead of time. I used just one box of spinach.I also added 2 cans of diced italian tomatoes. It gave this soup a beautiful flavor. Will definately make again.

delish! I have to agree with cooking the tortellini first and needs more broth. The broth can be added as you reheat it though. Grated parm is a must. It melts wonderfully in the hot soup. I also put red pepper flakes on top. Next time I make it I will add little meatballs.

I LOVE THIS SOUP!!! The only modification was the addition of meat. For me, I add 1 lb. cooked & cubed chicken breast. For my husband, I add 1 lb. ground & browned sausage. It is a great recipe & I seldom have leftovers - unless I double it!!

I liked this recipe once I made some adjustments. I added more chicken broth, cooked the tortellini separate to al dente, added minced garlic instead of the garlic powder and omitted the basil. I may add parsley instead. We all really liked this soup. I think adding shredded cooked chicken would be a good addition also and I will probably try that.

You could do a whole lot with this recipe, but I was looking for something really light for lunch today and this was perfect as written. I used fresh spinach, didn't have any tortellini so I used some leftover mini seashells in a pesto sauce. This was good Nicole and thanks!

I didn't bother with the original recipe. I followed some suggestions of others. I sauteed a whole chopped onion, 3 cloves of garlic, and 1 whole carrot, cut into matchsticks. I ended up using 3 cans of stock and 3 addtl cups of chicken boullion. Once the broth boiled, I reduced the heat and added 2 chopped tomatoes and almost a whole bag of chopped frozen spinach. I only simmered it for about 5 minutes, so the spinach would not overcook. I boiled the tortellini seperately and added it once the soup was off the heat. This is a fabulous meal! I got veggies into my husband!! I forsee this becoming a leftovers soup, where I will add leftover chicken or veggies or whatever.

With modifications, I thought this was a fabulous recipe. I'm not sure it's similar to the original as the reviews didn't make the original worth my time. Sauted 3-4 cloves of garlic, fresh basil, 1 chopped onion in olive oil. Added 1 lb. mild Italian sausage, sliced zucchini, and 1 bunch of fresh spinich. Then added 2 cans each of chicken broth, diced tomatoes, and water. Added juice of 3 key limes and salt to taste. Lastly, I cooked the tortellini seperately and added it when served. Ganish with grated parmesan. Full of flavor, easy to prepare, and my young kids are enjoying spinich and zucchini!

This is a good basic recipe that needs some tweaking. First, you need a little more liquid - so add more stock. Also, cook the tortellini separate, so it doesnt get mushy. You can add some carrots or celery as well. I added add'l spices at the end because it was a little bland.

I intend to make this soup again and again. I used a package of bite-sized fresh tortellini (cheese & herb), and loved what the spinach did for the soup. Quick, simple, & delicious! Thanks!

This was great. I did boil a chicken and used that for broth and then shredded some of the meat into it, added some onion and tarragon leaves along with the spinach.Also added a tablespoon of chicken base.. Excellent. I brought it to a boil and then added the tortellini which then thickened the broth.. Very good. I will use this again and pass it on.. Thank-you Nicole

I used vegetable broth rather than chicken broth becauase I'm a vegetarian, and it still tasted fine. I made sure to drain the thawed frozen spinach well before dumping it into the pot, and I added chopped carrots and some fresh tomatoes for additional flavor and to make it look nice. I had many compliments on this recipie. It's important to take the pot of the heat soon after the pasta has reached al dente, otherwise they'll fall apart and it won't taste as well. The leftovers the next day were good too.

After reading other reviews, i was pretty skeptical ... but i thought it was very good and flavorful too. Filling, but also a good light dinner. I did use 32oz.'s of broth, added in some grated carrott (not too much, but enough to give it that sweetness that carrott has when cooked), used twice as much tortellini(18 oz.'s) to stretch it farther, and used garlic and mozzerella stuffed tortellini. Word to the wise...with this recipe they say serves 4 and that is definetly all it serves if you follow the recipe to a tee.
