Good Recipe

Tomato Tortellini Soup

1 pkg. refrigerated cheese tortellini
2 cans (10-3/4 oz. each) condensed tomato soup (undiluted)
2 cups vegetable broth
2 cups 2% milk
2 cups half and half cream
1/2 cup chopped oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. dried basil
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese

Cook tortellini according to package.
Meanwhile, on the stovetop combine the soup, broth, milk, cream, tomatoes and seasonings. Heat through, stirring frequently. Drain tortellini; carefully add to soup. Stir in cheese. Sprinkle additional cheese to each serving if desired.

This was a really good soup and really easy to make. I did, however, make a few changes because I didn't have some things. I used 1% milk instead of 2%, I couldn't find any sun-dried tomatoes so I just cut some fresh ones into the soup and I used an Italian seasoning with basil in it because I didn't have just basil. It still turned out really good though!!

Funny Face

So thanks to Gina, I started and completed a wedding photo book from Shutterfly tonight! It hasbeen a long time coming. . . Anyway, as Kevin was looking at some of the wedding pics he noticed a funny face in one of the family pictures at the temple. I don't know how he caught it, but he cropped it nicely just for George to see :) And Jacob, I don't think he is very amused by this. . .
