Tomato Florentine Soup

"This was based on another recipe I found here on Recipezaar - I made some adaptations to suit my personal taste (and replace an ingredient I couldn't find at my local grocery) and it turned out really well. I hope others enjoy this as much as my husband and I have!"

  1. This was such really great tasting soup. As well it was so easy to make. I did make a few changes though. I left out the tortellini and put in about a half cup of rice. Only cause I prefer rice in my tomato soups. I find tortellini tends to swell too big when reheating again. As well I found the soup way too thick so I added at least another 4 to 5 cups of water. But the flavor was really great and I will be making it again. yummy !!

I'm a former Seattlite settling into the Austin area. When I started maternity leave with my first son, I had a little time to pick up cooking as a real hobby again. I've really enjoyed it! I've decided to only work part time during my little boys' first few years, so I'm looking forward to having plenty of time to experiment with my cooking. So far it's working out well!
