Any way you serve them, these tender little pasta pockets filled with warm melty cheese are comforting and delicious. We’ve slowly cooked our tortellini in chicken broth and aromatics for a truly flavorful yet light soup. To really make this meal bright and summer ready, we’ve finished the soup with a splash of lemon juice for a citrus kick and used fresh parsley as a garnish for a vibrant pop of color and freshness.

These type of recipes defeat the whole purpose of the machine, the whole point is to set it and let it cook alone. This set up makes the, very simple recipe, harder to accomplish then using a stove.
I’m going to skip the garlic and onion part (allergies), so that means I can set it up once and not have to tend it.
My experiment worked and was a big hit, and so I turned this into a prep then schedule meal, with no tending at all 🙂
I’m going to try this! Got to figure out what to substitute for the garlic and onions (allergies). Anyone have suggestions?
Hi Brenda, are all alliums off the table? Scallions would be a nice substitute. Otherwise you could add a sprig of fresh rosemary or thyme to add aromatic depth to the liquid in Step 2.
I discovered Better than Bullion Roast Chicken (comes in a jar). I used it to create the 4 cups of broth, and it added the herbs you suggested. It was a big hit! Thank you.
