Tasty, quick and easy soup recipe. The flavors blend together so well they will be begging for more. Cheese tortellini, fresh spinach, and diced chicken with a few other ingredients make this a keeper! This goes good with a gourmet grilled cheese.

You could add other vegetables to this soup like roasted red peppers, corn, or broccoli. I have also added in Tastefully Simple(R)'s Sweet Bell Pepper mix.

This was very good my husband and son really raved about it. I cooked two chicken breast seasoned with garlic onion and Mediterranean seasonings in my pressure cooker then used the seasoned broth as my chicken broth. I probably had about three cups of chicken. This was so creamy good and had a very nice flavor. I do think I'd cut the broth down next time to just five cups for a thicker soup base. I also threw the spinach in the last 7 minutes of cooking to keep it from reducing too much. I'd like to try it with more vegetables but really it was perfectly wonderful with just the spinach.

Fabulously easy! I added garlic since this recipe didn't call for it. I cooked my chicken in some heavy spices and then deglazed the pan with white wine...adding that to the stock as well. I added celery and carrots as well as onions. I'm the only spinach eater in the house so I added spinach to my bowl and let the heat from the soup wilt it. Instead of sour cream I added about 3oz of cream cheese--simply because that was what I had on hand. All in all this worked for us--my extremely picky 8 year old ate 2 bowls of it without complaint. Thanks!!!! Read More

Nice & buttery! Didn't have enough tortellini but I just added some normal pasta. I also added some carrots with the spinach. I think 13 oz of alfredo & 5 cups of chicken broth makes it even more delicious though. Extremely awesome easy and yummy Read More

This recipe is very easy and very delicious! I tweaked it slightly using nonfat Greek yogurt in place of the sour cream, a package of frozen chopped spinach in place of fresh and Prego Lite Alfredo sauce. My family loved it! The Parmesan sprinkled on top really adds to the rich flavor. Serve with bread sticks and you're all set! Read More

SO delicious. I doubled the chicken for a meatier soup and seasoned it with Herbes de Provence and lemon pepper before cooking in extra virgin olive oil then added all of the juices and meat to the soup. Very filling. A little goes a long way. Read More
