How to Cook Tomato Tortellini Soup in Slow Cooker

Makes 6-8 servings

Ingredients: 

1 pound (480 g) Italian sausages (I used mild), 4 cups (1L) reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth, 28 oz (840 ml) can diced tomatoes, undrained, 2 cans 10¾ oz (325 ml) each tomato soup, 2 8 oz (240 ml) each containers chive and onion cream cheese spread, softened, 18 oz (540 g) package frozen cheese tortellini, uncooked

• First, cut sausages into bite-size pieces. In a large nonstick skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sliced sausages and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are nicely browned and no longer pink.
• Remove browned sausages from the skillet and transfer to a slow cooker ( I use 6-quart ( 6 L) slow cooker). Pour in the chicken broth, then add tomatoes and tomato soup. Stir well.
• Close the cooker and cook on low-heat setting for 6-8 hours or until sausages are cooked through.
• Open the lid and stir in cream cheese and uncooked tortellini. Close the pot and cook on high-heat setting for a further 15-30 minutes or until tortellini is tender.
• Turn off the slow cooker and open the lid. Stir the soup well before serving. Ladle into soup bowls and serve hot.
