Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Chicken Broth (swap with vegetable broth for vegetarian option)
  • 2 cans Tomato Soup (10.75 oz each, low-sodium varieties recommended)
  • 2 cups Milk (skim preferred; can use plant-based milk for lactose-free)
  • 2 cups Half and Half (replace with additional milk for lighter version)
  • 1 package Frozen Cheese Tortellini (substitute with fresh tortellini, adjust cooking time)
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder (can substitute with fresh onions)
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder (or use minced fresh garlic)
