Creamy Crockpot Tortellini Soup

Creamy Crockpot Tortellini Stew 9

I’m a huge fan of  Crockpot Tortellini Soup. I make it often for my family, so I wanted to try a new twist on our favorite.  Boy oh boy am I glad I decided to experiment!

This Creamy Crockpot Tortellini Soup is BETTER than any tortellini soup I have made in the past.  There are a lot of, what I like to call, “hidden veggies.”  The spinach, mushrooms and carrots blend so well into the soup, both of my mushroom hating children didn’t blink and eye and ate 2 bowls full!  SUCCESS!

    1. My 2nd time making it!! One of my favorites’!!!! I use chicken and chicken broth instead, never tried it with beef.. I put chicken tenderloins in oven with light seasoning on it..cook until not raw thentake out, let it cool then cut it in cubes then toss in crockpot!!!

    2. This was amazing! I used spicy italian sausage instead of ground beef and I added about a cup of half and half to make it a little more creamy and some parmesan cheese to taste. it was amazing and so easy to make!

  1. Can’t wait to try this one!! No matter what, it seems to always be extra good when made in the crockpot.

    Yes Ma’am! This is a must recipe!

    I’m trying this for the first time and realizing crock pots must come in different sizes. Mine is fairly large and oval, but probably not large enough. With all the initial ingredients, it’s up to the top. Even when the spinach cooks down, I’m wondering if the tortellini will fit… guess we’ll see! 🙂

  4. I followed the directions for HIGH but the cream cheese curdled. 🙁 Other than that, it was delicious. I think it would be great even without the meat.

    1. Just made this-my cream cheese curdles also, any help on preventing it from happening? Smells delicious!

    2. Where you cooking it on high or low?

    3. I cooked it on Low and followed your instructions but the cheese curdled as well. I put it in right out of the refrigerator… do you think this had something to do with it? Otherwise it was delicious… Does the cheese make a big difference? I’m thinking that next time, I’ll leave it out… what do you think?
