Tortellini Soup with Corn and Leeks

from 1 votes

I love to create dishes that include as many of my favorite ingredients as possible. Soups are a great way to accomplish this because they’re like blank canvases when it comes to flavor. Start with a chicken or vegetable broth base, add some seasonings, and you can pretty much fill in the rest with all of your favorites. I happen to love the flavor of leeks, so I’m using the root vegetable as a main flavor of this soup and finishing it off with sweet yellow corn and cheesy tortellini.

  1. I’m super curious about this PLUS I have fridge ravioli right now. Oooooh.
    I’d never considered putting ravioli or tortellini or anything in soup.
