A New Recipe to share

So yesterday, I had a hankering for some soup.  I knew I had some precooked italian sausage in the fridge and some totellini in the pantry.  So I pulled them out and added a few other ingredients and ended up with what my husband called "the BEST thing he has ever eaten."  I have to think that may be a bit of an overstatement, but even I have to admit that it was REALLY good.  SO I thought I would share the recipe with all of my friends.

Best Ever Sausage & Tortellini Soup

Ingredients:
3 cups cooked Italian sausage
3 cups uncooked tortellini
4 cups water
1 can evaporated milk
6 chicken boullion cubes
1 tbsp. oregano
1 tbsp. parsley
1 tbsp. chives
salt & pepper to taste
parmesan cheese

Put all ingredients except tortellini in medium size sauce pan and bring to boil.  Allow to simmer about 15 minutes.  Add tortellini and allow to boil according to pasta pkg. instructions.  Sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese and serve.

See my next post up for a variation of this soup using potatoes instead of tortellini.  It is delicious too!!!
