chicken or sausage tortellini
Ingredients:
- 1 (19oz) bag of frozen cheese tortellini
- 1 small bag of fresh spinach (i used about half of a 5 oz package; but more is better!)
- 2 (14.5 oz) cans of italian style diced tomatoes (drained)
- 1 block (8 oz) of cream cheese** (softened in microwave)
- 1 lb. of ground sausage or chicken/turkey sausage
- 3-4 cups of chicken broth (start with 3; add 1 more if it looks like it needs it)
Directions:
- The only prep work is to brown your sausage; whichever kind you choose for extra flavor
- Put all ingredients in crockpot, chunking up the cream cheese
- Cook on low for 4-6 hrs
Notes:
- Keep an eye on your tortellini; it may be done sooner
- If still soupy, leave lid off for the last half hour or so of cooking
- This recipes calls for sausage but chicken sausage is good too
