Tips:
- Use high-quality tortellini. Fresh or refrigerated tortellini will yield the best results. If using dried tortellini, be sure to cook it according to package directions before adding it to the soup.

- Season the soup to taste. Be sure to taste the soup before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or garlic powder to taste.
- Serve the soup with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings for creamy chicken and kale tortellini soup include grated Parmesan cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped fresh parsley.
