How to make crockpot sausage tortellini soup

1. Brown sausage according to package directions. Drain grease and place sausage into a 6-quart slow cooker.
2. Add carrots, celery, onion, spices, tomatoes, and broth to the slow cooker and mix well. Cover and set on low for 6-8 hours.

3. Remove the lid and add tortellini, fresh spinach, and heavy cream. Stir well. Cover and set on high for 20-30 minutes or until the tortellini is cooked.
4. Serve immediately topped with shredded Parmesan cheese and a dash of pepper flakes if desired.

Leftovers

Leftover soup is excellent, and if it becomes too thick (that pasta keeps absorbing liquids), add a little more chicken broth!

Can Fresh or Refrigerated or Frozen Tortellini be used in this soup? 

Absolutely! We use pantry stable, but you can use any family favorite tortellini.

It will just need to be added no sooner than 1 hour out of soup being done to allow it time to cook but not get soggy.
