Notes

Storage: Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Reheating: I like to reheat this soup on the stovetop with a little extra chicken stock added to thin it out. It thickens up in once put in the refrigerator.
Top it with croutons: This tomato tortellini soup is excellent with a nice crunchy element. I like to top this tomato soup with some of my Garlic Parmesan Croutons.
Make it dairy free: To make this a dairy free tomato soup, omit the heavy cream and buy a dairy free tortellini.
