Spinach Tortellini Soup

Light, yet substantial with cheese-filled pasta, this soup tastes
wonderful when it's cold and damp outside. Serve with bread and a salad,
and you've got dinner in minutes.

Tortellini is available with many different fillings. Mushroom- or
chicken-filled tortellini would taste great in this soup as well.
