Slow Cooker Creamy Sausage & Tortellini Soup Recipe

• Slow cooker (4-quart or larger)
• Skillet (for browning sausage)
• Spoon or spatula
• Measuring cups and spoons

Step-by-Step Preparation Guide

1. Prepare the Ingredients: Start by chopping the onion, mincing the garlic, and roughly chopping the spinach. These fresh ingredients add great flavor and texture to the soup.
2. Brown the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the Italian sausage until it’s no longer pink. Use a spatula to break it into small pieces as it cooks. Once cooked, drain any excess fat.
3. Combine Ingredients in Slow Cooker: Transfer the browned sausage to the slow cooker. Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, diced tomatoes (with their juice), onions, garlic, basil, and oregano. Stir to combine.
4. Cook on Low: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 5-6 hours, or until the flavors are well melded and the onions are tender.
5. Add Tortellini and Spinach: About 20-30 minutes before serving, add the tortellini and spinach to the slow cooker. Stir well, cover, and cook until the tortellini is tender and the spinach has wilted.
6. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the soup and add salt and pepper as needed. Stir everything well to ensure it’s fully combined.
7. Serve Hot: Ladle the soup into bowls and serve it hot. Enjoy the rich, creamy flavors with a slice of crusty bread or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top for extra indulgence.
