Christy's Tortillini Soup

This is a new one. What did you think? Mom got a great deal on the tortillini's!

1 pound ground beef

3 1/2 cups water

1 can diced tomatoes (don't drain)

1 can condensed French Onion Soup (we are thinking next time of using dry package french onion soup and make your self because it is cheaper. Next time we will try that)

1 package frozen cut green beans (9oz)

1 package cheese tortellini (9oz)

1 zucchini chopped

1 teaspoon basil

Cook beef, drain. Add remaining ingredients, bring to a boil. Cook for 5 minutes.

Freezer directions: We did not add tortellini when preparing. We just put on the package to add tortellini and cook for 5 minutes. We packaged in containers with tight lids. We found there was too much liquid to freeze. We are going to lessen the water next time and add water to it when we serve it.
