Wonderful. I made a few substitutions but followed the basic recipe. I added sliced baby bella mushrooms that I had left over and sauteed them with the onions. Insead of sundried tomatoes (which I do not like) I added a can of petite diced tomatoes and their juice and halved the hot water. I also tossed in a parm-regg cheese rind I was saving for making soup. I also added artichoke hearts (quartered) when I added the pasta. It was AWESOME! This was so easy to make and I will definitely make it again.

Yum! I halved this recipe and made as directed except that I used dried tricolor tortellini and used oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes (but pressed them well with a paper towel to get the oil out). I enjoyed the flavor that the sun-dried tomatoes imparted to this dish, but would definitely only use fresh pasta next time! We loved this. Spicy, simple, and good. Thanks Lainey for another keeper. Made for ZWT4.

This soup is WONDERFUL! I am a fan of cream based soups, but decided to make this since I had some 3 cheese tortellini in the freezer my kids have been begging me to use. I considered cutting the recipe in half since there were only 4 of us having it for lunch: I'm so glad I didn't. My children all agreed that it deserved more then 5 stars (that's something I normally only hear if it is junk food related). My one daughter who doesn't like spicy food at all, would take a bite, comment about the spice, sip some water and then take another bite...she managed to do that through 3 bowls of soup! This will be on our table quite often.

Loved the asiago cheese in this with the spinach and tortellinis. I subbed extra broth for the water and used 3-cheese tortellini. I really liked the spinach and the punch of heat from the cayenne and crushed red pepper flakes. As a personal preference I would cut down on the amount of sun-dried tomatoes next time. We served this with some fresh sourdough, yum! Made for the PRMR tag game.

5 star. Great soup. Halved it every way but the tortellini (mine was artichoke and lower fat). Omitted onion but used 1/2 cup shallots. I used veggie broth cause we are vegetarians. Made it as a main dish. So great! Thanks! Made for RSC#11:D

This was a great soup! It has a high veggie to broth ratio and a little kick to it, which is nice. I used 2 teaspoons of oil (2 tablespoons for the butter must be 2 teaspoons also?). I assumed the hot water in the ingredients were for soaking the tomatoes. I put the tomatoes in the food processor after soaking them, since the only sun dried tomatoes not packed in oil I could find are whole. I also skipped the cheese, which worked for us, since the tortellini already contained ample cheese. Served 3-4 as a meal. The ingredients in this soup work very well together!

I had to have a larger serving than 1 cup because this soup is so good. Really enjoy tortellini and dont buy it often because DH doesnt care for it. For this soup I had to make an exception! The flavor was so very good with the sun dried tomatoes added. This is a must make again recipe! Thank you for submitting this one and good luck in the contest.

4 stars. I love the sundried tomatoes here and how they solely make up the "tomato" part of the soup! The little bit of spice from the cayenne and pepper flakes was great. I used vegetarian "chicken" bullion with water for the stock, but it was a little salty for our liking, which may have been my fault. This is a great brothy soup with delicious morsels of sundried tomatoes, spinach and flavourful tortellini. Thanks! Reviewed for RSC #11.

4 stars. This was a very pretty soup with the dark green spinach leaves, red sun dried tomatoes, and yellow cheese tortellini. I think the sun dried tomatoes really gave the soup a wonderful flavor along with the spices. The only complaint I have is that the cheese seemed to stick to the ladel and tablespoon I was eating it with. Yummy nevertheless! Made and reviewed for RSC#11.

This was an inovative take on the classic tortellini soup. I liked the sun-dried tomatoes but would probably still use some regular fresh tomatoes. I also only used 4 cups of chicken stock and no water. (I like my soup a little thicker.) Good luck in the contest!
