Tortellini Broth Bowls – kid friendly

Jump to Recipe

Tortellini Broth Bowls are kid friendly and the perfect meal for when you don’t feel like cooking.

We’ve had quite the week around here. I’ll spare you the details and just jump right back in to sharing good food with you like this idea I had for tortellini broth bowls. Panera makes some delicious broth bowls but they are pricey. Bone broth is a trend and in general I don’t follow food trends but when it’s cold outside and there’s sickness going around my mind goes to sipping on broth.

These tortellini broth bowls can be completely customized to your family’s tastes. I heated some chicken bone broth and flavored it with fresh lemon juice, a bay leaf and some smoked paprika. Once it was boiling I tossed in a package of cheese tortellini and then roasted some broccoli for the vegetable. You could add rotisserie chicken, corn, cooked carrots, peas – whatever your kids will eat. The broth bowls are really good with a little sour cream stirred in at the end too. It makes them creamy and totally satisfying.

    I’m with you – when the temperatures start to drop and sicknesses start to spread, I definitely turn to broth and soup. I’ve never put tortellini in soup before, but I’m super excited to give it a shot!

    I’ve heard about bone broth but haven’t made it yet! I’ll have to remember to keep the bones from the next roasted chicken and use it to make bone broth! I like that you used roasted broccoli. Recipe saved!
