Directions
**N I didn't have any broccoli in the house so I used frozen corn.
Pour broth into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add tortellini and cook 1 - 2 min or, if frozen, according to package directions. Add broccoli and cook over high heat about 5 minutes (You are cooking broccoli to crisp-tender stage as you finish cooking pasta.) Meanwhile, mix remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Serve soup in bowls, topping each serving with a drizzle of the flavored oil.
This is a fabulous soup...I really enjoyed it with the corn.
