A hearty blend of sausage, spinach,

tomatoes, with cream cheese, and frozen
tortellini, all cooked together in a crockpot
and slow-cooked for a few hours. Just set it
and forget it!

If using frozen spinach, simply add to

the slow cooker.

If using fresh spinach, remove the

stems before you toss it in the crockpot
and chop finely.

Ground sausage, beef, chicken, or Italian

sausage links are also good in this recipe.
Be sure to cook them first so you can
drain any fat.

This recipe uses frozen tortellini to

ensure it doesn’t overcook. No need to
thaw or pre-cook.

How to Make Crockpot

Tortellini
The slow cooker is perfect for seemingly
fancy recipes like Chicken Cacciatore or
making easy, cheesy recipes like this one
look like you worked all day!

1. Brown sausage and onions (per recipe

below).

2. Drain and place the meat mixture and all

the other ingredients in a 6 qt slow
cooker.

It really IS that easy! You can even prepare it

in advance and toss all the ingredients
together while you do other things!

Do Not Overcook
In just a few hours this Crockpot sausage
tortellini will be hot, bubbly, cheesy, and
ready to serve! Tortellini doesn’t need long
to cook, even right from frozen so be sure
you check it after about 2 1/2 hours.

Once it’s done cooking, you’ll still see the

cream cheese in cubes. Simply give it a stir
until it’s all combined and creamy. Add some
garlic bread, or croutons and a crisp green
salad and dinner is served!

Saving/Reheating
Creamy Crockpot
Tortellini
If there’s any left, right? This awesome
cheese tortellini and sausage entrée reheats
perfectly on the stovetop or in the
microwave! This is what makes it so great to
take to work or school! It heats up super
easy! Feel free to ‘freshen’ it up a bit with
some salt and pepper or extra Italian
seasoning.

Can I leave the sausage out?

Holly Nilsson Reply

August 5, 2022 at 5:31 pm

I’ve only tried this as written, however, the

sausage does add a lot of flavor and bulk to
the recipe. If you do decide to leave it out, I
would suggest adding extra seasoning and/or
another ground meat or even finely chopped
mushrooms.

Can I cut the recipe in half, without

compromising taste, to make half of what the
recipe requires? I don’t have a big family so I
don’t need to make for 8.

Halfing the recipe won’t compromise the taste

or the cooking time. You can adjust the
serving amount to 4 when you click on the
“Print Recipe” button on the recipe page!
Hope this helped!

THIS IS AMAZING!!! Even my super picky

husband likes it! The only thing I changed was
I use sausage links instead of ground sausage.
I browned them and then sliced them.

I made this for the first time tonight and it was

a huge hit with my family!! I used hamburger
instead of sausage and I left out the Italian
seasoning because they don’t really like it but
even with those changes, it was truly
delicious!! We’ll be having this a lot more
during the cold winter months. So quick and
easy to throw together.

Yummy! I added sausage and shredded

chicken. My tortellini was fresh with chicken
and mozzarella inside. This is a keeper.

Excellent recipe. I used fresh spinach and

fresh tortellini, used rotisserie chicken, did not
add onions but sprinkled in both onion powder
and garlic powder along with Italian
seasoning. Had lots of leftovers and will make
again. Delicious!

Made this for first time yesterday, on a snowy

day. It was so delicious! My picky kids are
already asking me to make it again! Note, I
added the tortallini during the last hour of
cooking because I prefer it to be a little more
al dente. Adding this to my rotation for sure!!
SO GOOD!!
