Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add frozen cheese tortellini and cook for 3-5 minutes until they float. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a stock pot, combine tomato soup, chicken broth, milk, and half and half. Add sun-dried tomatoes, onion powder, garlic powder, dried basil, and salt. Stir well.
  3. Heat the soup mixture over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently. Do not boil.
  4. Reduce heat to low and gently stir in the drained tortellini. Simmer for 3-4 minutes.
  5. Gradually stir in Parmesan cheese until melted, about 2-3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  6. Let the soup heat for an additional 2-3 minutes without boiling.
  7. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with extra Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve with crusty bread.
