Tortellini Leek Soup

I made up a little recipe for dinner tonight. It came out really well! So well, that there's no leftovers for my lunch! The girls even asked to take it to school for lunch, which means it was good!

Here's my recipe. Very simple, but tasty.

1/2 a large butternut squash, peeled and chopped into bite size pieces
3 leeks
1 small bag of tortellini
3 cans of chicken stock

Slice leeks into thin circles. Chop squash into bite size pieces. Stir fry leeks for a couple minutes, then add the chicken broth and the squash. Boil for about 10 minutes, then add the tortellini. Boil until tortellini is soft. Serve with biscuits.

It was tasty yet very simple. I LOVE squash this time of year, but Liz doesn't like it, so I have to think of ways to put it into dishes. She liked it in this soup, not a single complaint, and she downed her bowl faster than anyone else. You could change it up by adding different spices, a can of tomatoes, or some sausage.
