Bland and disappointing. The broth was watery and the tortellini were mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't come together. I won't be making this again.

Good, basic recipe. I made a few changes to suit my taste, like adding more garlic and oregano to the broth. I also used a different kind of tortellini, with a spinach and ricotta filling. It turned out great!

Easy to make and delicious! I used a store-bought rotisserie chicken to save time, and it worked perfectly. The tortellini were cooked just right and the broth was flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

This tortellini soup was a hit with my family! The broth was flavorful and the tortellini cooked perfectly. I added some extra vegetables, like carrots and celery, and it turned out great. Definitely a keeper!
