Servings: 1
Ingredients
• 4 oz chicken tortellini (about 1/5 of a 20 oz family-size bag)
• 1 teaspoon Better Than Bouillon
• 1 cup hot water
• 1/3 cup frozen mixed vegetables
• 1 wedge of fresh lemon
Directions
1. Thaw the Tortellini:
Place 4 oz of chicken tortellini in a microwave-safe bowl or mug and microwave for about 1 minute to thaw.
2. Prepare the Broth:
In a large mug, mix 1 teaspoon of Better Than Bouillon with 1 cup of hot water until fully dissolved.
3. Combine and Heat:
Add the thawed tortellini to the mug with the broth. Microwave the mug for 2 minutes to heat everything thoroughly.
4. Cool with Veggies:
Stir in 1/3 cup of frozen veggies. They’ll help cool the soup to the perfect eating temperature while adding flavor and nutrients.
5. Add the Lemon Touch:
Squeeze in a wedge of lemon to brighten the flavors just before enjoying.
Why I Love This Recipe
This single-serve recipe was crafted with convenience in mind. By portioning out the tortellini into individual servings at the start of the week, I’ve eliminated the guesswork. I keep the bouillon and frozen veggies at the ready in the fridge, and with just a lemon wedge to finish it off, this soup comes together in minutes.
It’s not just about saving time—it’s about having something comforting and delicious waiting for you, even on the busiest workdays. Just one mug, a microwave, and a little planning go a long way to making the workday cozier!
