Beef Tortellini Soup

This Beef Tortellini Soup is the one. Like I mean THE ONE. Even my guy who is not a huge soup fan (I know, I should leave him, but he gives good... foot massages. Yeah, that’s what he gives) 😇 

Anyhoo! Considering we are basically living in a deep freeze this winter, I’ve been living on hot soups and stews. If my outside can’t be warm, at least my insides can be! 

INGREDIENTS: 1 lb lean ground beef Medium onion, diced 4 cloves garlic, minced 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes 27oz canned, chopped tomatoes 18 oz tomato sauce 4 cups low sodium beef broth 2 tsp Italian seasoning 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce 2 tsp balsamic vinegar 1 pound fresh or frozen tortellini 8 oz cream cheese, softened 1/2 cup Parmesan, grated 1/4 cup basil, chopped Pepper to taste INSTRUCTIONS: 1.
