One thing that writing this blog has shown me over the last few months is that I absolutely love soup. And when you can apply that love to creating something new, sometimes you just outdo yourself. This Creamy White Tortellini Soup is quick, easy, and deliciously creamy. Not to mention packed with delicious seared chicken sausage, fresh escarole, and topped with chopped green onions. Prepare for an explosion of deliciousness on your taste buds.

Soups are always a great way to get creative, throw some ingredients together, and see what you come up with. This recipe came together once I saw I had some half and half, a few links of chicken sausage, and fresh three cheese tortellini I needed to do something with. Aha, I said. How about a soup!!?? But of course!

So yeah, this soup has a bit of something for everyone. The escarole, carrots, and celery will satisfy the veggie lover. The tortellini and Pecorino-Romano will satisfy your cheese-lover. And the chicken sausage will satisfy your meat lover. All in a single dish. Soups are the best that way!

Here it is, the Creamy White Tortellini Soup With Chicken Sausage and Escarole
