## Tips

- Use gluten-free tortellini if needed.
- Other greens like kale, Swiss chard, or arugula can be used.
- Coconut cream, cashew cream, or other vegan creams can substitute oat cream. Note that coconut cream may add a coconut flavor.
- Cook tortellini separately if freezing the soup to avoid over-softening the pasta.
- Soup can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated on the stovetop. Add vegetable stock or oat cream if it has thickened too much
