This is a light and delicious dish! Very easy to make and extremely inexpensive.
4 1/2 cups of broth (any kind- I use chicken)
9 oz refriderated cheese tortellini
15 oz. white kidney or cannelloni beans, drained and rinsed
14 oz. diced tomatoes
1 T. basil (dried)
1 T. balsamic vinegar
1/4 t. salt (or skip it)
1/8 t. pepper
1/3 c. parmesan cheese
Combine everything except parm cheese. If desired, add more balsamic vinegar and pepper for a stronger flavor. Boil and simmer according to tortellini package. Serve with parm cheese.
Enjoy!
