    Strengthen your immune systems

    I think it will, I might add a drizzle of Pure Maple Syrup in there, that is good for you too and adds a little bit of sweetness but not as much as honey of sugar ☺

    My Coles often have cheese filled 'fresh' pasta, varoius shapes in the chilled food section. Cannot remember which brand but things like '3 Cheeses' or 'Ricotta & Spinach' I suppose a ravioli or other shape may work as well as torteliini ☺
