Creamy Crockpot Tortellini Soup
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!

Creamy Crockpot Tortellini Soup
- 24 oz jar spaghetti sauce
- 2 cups water
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 3-4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 cup diced carrots
- 1lb ground beef, browned
- 4 cups of loosely packed fresh spinach leaves
- 4 cups beef broth
- 8 oz cream cheese, cut into 1 inch cubes
- 8 oz sliced fresh mushrooms
- 16 oz refrigerated cheese tortellini (you can also use frozen, just add 30 more minutes to cooking time)
- Combine spaghetti sauce, water, meat, onions, garlic, carrots, spinach, cream cheese, beef broth, and mushrooms in a slow-cooker. Cook on LOW for 7 hours, on HIGH for 5 hours.
- Before adding in tortellini, take a whisk to your soup to break up any chunks of cream cheese. Stir in tortellini. Cover and cook for 20-30 minutes or until tender and hot. (If using frozen tortellini, I would cook for about 45 more minutes, or until tender and hot)

Hi there, just wondering on the times… 12 hours total? 7 on low 5 on high? the total time states 7 hrs 5 min so I wasn’t sure. thanks!
No Laurie, it is either or. If you are cooking on low…do it for 7 hours. If you are cooking on high, cook for 4-5 hours.
oh gotcha! thanks! in the CP now
it was delicious. I used Prego 3 cheese spaghetti sauce. Thanks for the interesting recipe!!
I made this recipe tonight and it was delicious! Everyone loved it 🙂 I prepared it over stove top vs the slow cooker and it was an easy and yummy meal everyone enjoyed, thank you!
I’m trying this stove top as well as I found out crockpots aren’t all the same size (I know, I know). I was thinking about 10min at a hard boil and then simmer for 30, add the spinach after the 30min for an additional 10 min then turn the heat back to a hard boil and add the tortellini in for the suggested cooking time of 7-9min. Are these cooking times enough? Anyone have any advise?
I can attest to these times. Worked out nicely on the stove with the times mentioned above. Plus, I added a pinch of hot pepper to it. Gave it a really nice little kick.
Made this today and it was beyond delicious!!!! And such simple ingredients. I also cooked some bacon on the side and crumbled it in my bowl before eating, awesome. Thanks for great recipe- I’m sharing with everyone 🙂
