Tortellini in Brodo Soup Recipe (Italian). Tortellini en brodo "in broth" is a traditional first course for our Italian Christmas Eve dinner or Christmas Day lunch. An easy and delicious meal that takes little time to prepare. I love the size and shape of the tortellini you can get a perfect bite in every spoonful.
