Because of its rich spicy flavor, this soup has been a favorite in our home for years. I think you'll agree the tortellini adds an interesting twist. Ingredients:

7 cups beef broth |
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) stewed tomatoes |
3/4 cup ketchup |
3/4 cup thinly sliced carrots |
3/4 cup thinly sliced celery |
3/4 cup finely chopped onion |
1 tablespoon dried basil |
1-1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt |
1 teaspoon sugar |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
4 bay leaves |
1-1/2 cups frozen cheese tortellini |
grated parmesan cheese, optional |
Directions:
1. In a Dutch oven or soup kettle, brown beef; drain. Add the next 11 ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 30 minutes. 2. Add tortellini; cook for 20-30 minutes or until tender. Remove bay leaves. Garnish individual servings with Parmesan cheese if desired. Yield: 10-12 servings (3-1/4 quarts). |
