(This easy and wonderful soup came from my sister Virginia. We trade a lot of recipes and this one is such a good "comfort" soup, we love it and it's very filing so be aware when you dish it up! )
* one 16oz package of refrigerated 3 cheese tortellini ( I use 1/2 package of a double one from Costco)
* 2 cans of diced tomatoes the ones with basil and oregano
*4 - 6 cups chicken broth
* 1 lb. Jimmy Dean sausage, regular. (My sister likes a lot so she buys the big one from Costco, but we like the smaller one just fine)
*8oz cream cheese
Directions:
fry up the sausage and put in crockpot
add: chicken broth, and tomatoes
Cook on low for about 6 hours (I just cooked mine on high for about 3) - you just want the flavors to cook together
After that add 8 oz cream cheese and stir until melted, then add tortellini and cook until it's done.
Serve
Note: make sure this is in the crockpot for the 6 hours, I did it in 4 and the flavor was bland, after it sat and was re-heated, the flavor was finally right)
