[recipe] Tortellini Vegetable Soup

[Guest guest]

This is so good and you can adjust the veggies used in it to fit

the season. Recently i made it and added fresh asparagus to

the pot. You can also use mini cheese raviolis in place of the

tortellini ~ mix it up, anything goes pretty much. Enjoy!
