This Easy Alfredo Tortellini Soup is just fabulous for dinner in a hurry. All the flavors of Alfredo that you love with the ease of a quick soup.
Not to hurry summer on its merry way, but we all know it…FALL is coming! And with the change of seasons, I start thinking soup! If you’re looking for an EASY soup, then try this Easy Alfredo Tortellini Soup, this one is a keeper. I was browsing online and found the original recipe at Allrecipes.com and just knew my family would enjoy. Of course, I changed things up a bit to suit our tastes.
We’ve talked in the past of my love of frozen cheese tortellini, it is a staple in my home and something that saves me oodles of time and is quite a bargain. So no surprise I’m using it again. Another part of this recipe that is a time saver and to be honest a budget saver is that I’m using rotisserie chicken. I get 2-3 meals out of a rotisserie chicken just whacking one apart and dividing up the meat, so in my opinion, it is a huge time and money saving product.
Lastly, I normally make my own alfredo sauce, such an easy sauce to make, why not. Well, in this case, I used store bought. If we’re gonna go for a soup that is prepared quickly, why not save a few minutes. I used a flavored alfredo which brought extra overall flavor. Trust me, this recipe is not only easy but quick and delicious! Give it a try, especially on those busy school nights.

Do you think you could throw everything in the crock pot on low? I’ve never used tortellini before but really want to try this, and have it ready when I come home for lunch break!
