Leftover Chicken & Corabella Tortelloni Soup
[ORIGINAL POST: July 2011]
Another best way to use up leftover chicken besides making a sandwich filling or adding into fried rice, is to make soup. And not just chicken soup with vegetable but a chicken and pasta soup using Corabella Tortelloni(classic four cheese) pasta. So delish and so filling that’s perfect for those rainy days or when you’re not felling well.
