Pesto & Tortellini Soup


All three of us very much LOVE this soup. So delicious, filling, and very easy to make. 

Pesto & Tortellini Soup

1 clove garlic, chopped
1 medium carrot, julienned
1/2 c. onion, chopped
1/2 c. celery, chopped
2 tbsp. butter/oil/liquid (it's for sauteing)
6 c. chicken or vegetable base (or bouillon)
1 can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
2/5 c. tortellini
1 tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped (completely forgot to add this last night)
1/4 tsp. pepper
Pesto
Fresh parmesan cheese (we didn't have any, and honestly couldn't tell)

Saute veggies over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, constantly stirring.
Stir in water and base/bouillon, then heat to a boil.
Stir in pasta and beans, then reduce to simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally
Stir in parsley and pepper.
Add a dollop of pesto to each bowl, and sprinkle some parmesan on top.

Bon Appetite!
