Note
Use fresh tortellini for the best texture; if using dried, increase cooking time by 5-10 minutes.
For a heartier stew, add other seasonal vegetables like butternut squash cubes or carrots along with the potatoes.
This stew tastes even better the next day as the flavors meld together. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
If you prefer a thinner consistency, add an additional 1/2 cup of vegetable broth or water.
