• 1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

Recipe

• 1 pour broth in to large pot and bring to a simmer (i like the organic box type if i do not make my own broth from scratch). meanwhile cook the sausage, (i like to mix the spicy and regular the tube kind, like bob evans or jimmy dean or even italian sausage works well). drain fat off and add to the simmering broth.
• 2 to the broth add the onions, garlic, oregano, and parsley. turn it up to a boil.
• 3 then add the zucchini, squash, tortellini, (watch out that the pot is big enough since the tortellinis will float, cook them as directed in package) bring back to a boil.
• 4 once the tortellinis are done add the beans and tomatoes. to heat them up and serve.
• 5 ** green peppers are good to add too.
