Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 ounces cheese tortellini (refrigerated or frozen)
- 1 pound Italian sausage
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 2 carrots, peeled and diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 28 ounces canned diced tomatoes (undrained)
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cups baby spinach leaves
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
In a skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the Italian sausage, breaking it apart with a spoon, and cook until browned. Drain any excess grease and transfer the sausage to your crock pot.
Add the diced onion, carrots, celery, minced garlic, and canned diced tomatoes (with their juices) to the crock pot.
Pour in the chicken broth, and add the dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Stir the ingredients well to combine.
Set the crock pot to cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the vegetables are tender and the flavors are well developed.
About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the cheese tortellini and baby spinach. Cover and cook until the tortellini is tender (approximately 20-30 minutes).
Once the tortellini is cooked, stir in the heavy cream and grated parmesan cheese. Allow the soup to heat through for an additional 5-10 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve the soup hot, and garnish with extra parmesan cheese if desired. Enjoy!
