What’s in Crockpot Tortellini Soup?
Sausage: The ground Italian sausage infuses the dish with a robust, savory flavor, complemented by the tangy, notes from the garlic and herb Boursin cheese. Italian sausage, diced ham, or chorizo can be used as well as leftover meat like chicken, taco meat, or pork.
Soup: Broth, tomato soup, and herb-flavored Boursin cheese will make this soup extra creamy.
Tortellini: The cheese tortellini in this soup becomes tender, soaking up the broth’s flavors while keeping a satisfying bite. It’s the perfect balance of creamy and hearty in every spoonful!
Vegetables: The spinach adds an earthy, slightly bitter note that balances out the richness of the sausage and cheese. Besides spinach, chopped kale, sliced mushrooms, sliced zucchini, or bell peppers will add flavor and extra bulk for larger gatherings.
Cheese: Combining Boursin cheese and tomato soup creates a smooth, velvety broth that envelopes the other ingredients, providing a rich and comforting dish. If you can’t find Boursin, use cream cheese and add some DIY savory seasonings.
Variations: Add a cup of salsa or a bit of Tabasco sauce for a spicy kick!

Soup turned out great and the family like it. One thing I think it was missing was a vegetable. Next time, I might add some chopped kale (minus the rib) when adding the tortellini and cream. Thanks for the recipe.
