Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In the same skillet, add another tbsp. of olive oil and cook the sweet potato and sweet peppers over medium-high heat for about 8 minutes or until the potato is pretty tender.
3. Meanwhile, put a large pot of water on to boil. Follow package directions to cook the tortellini and then drain.
4. Combine tortellini, cooked chicken and mushrooms, chopped sweet peppers, sweet peas, sweet potatoes, and corn in a large bowl. Set aside.
5. Rinse out the skillet that cooked the chicken and sweet potato and combine chicken broth, garlic salt, pepper, and milk. Mix together and slowly add in the flour. Continue to stir until mixture thickens and then add the cream of chicken (or mushroom) soup.
6. Pour the milk and soup mixture over the tortellini and vegetables. Toss until coated and pour into a large 9 x 13 pan.
