Personal Notes:
This became a Watson favorite the first time Mrs. Cox made it for us! It is a fun recipe to use our frozen basil in and our home grown canned tomatoes. If you don't think you will use all the soup, hold back some of the tortellini because the tortellini will absorb all the liquid if it sits too long. Sometimes I will just add the tortellini to the individual bowls with the fresh parmesan.
