Chicken Tortellini Soup

I have several go-to, under-30-minutes healthy and delicious dinner recipes.  This fabulous Chicken Tortellini Soup definitely makes the cut along with my Baked Burritos, Stuffed Zucchini, and Simple Turkey Chili.  My talented friend, Erin, inspired this recipe.  She made a similar soup for us once, and my family fell in love with it!  Be prepared to have your family instantly hooked too!

I recently was fully converted to organic carrots.  I was snacking on a raw carrot until I realized my tongue start tingling along with a horrible aftertaste.  Pesticides?  Chemicals?  Who knows… but it was disgusting.  I only purchase organic carrots now.  They have been surprisingly cheap too!  I get a 2 lb bag for under $2.  No more tingling tongue.

 

Also, I’m a huge advocate for washing your vegetables.  Are you one to just rinse them under water and think you’re good?  Well, read this post where you can visibly see the difference between rinsing and washing.  I’ve tried numerous of washing methods and keep coming back to Fit: Vegetable Wash.  I’ve only been able to find it on Amazon or at Walmart.  I dilute it 50:50 with water and use it on everything without a thick skin or peel that’s not edible (bananas, avocados, etc.).  Completely worth the investment.  You’ll never be able to eat grapes without it again.
