Day two of the week of soups is also creamy based, but a creamy tomato soup base. Think of this Slow Cooker Creamy Tomato and Tortellini Soup as a good old tomato soup but amped up with extras.
The base does begin with canned tomato soup, but the creaminess doesn’t come from milk. It comes from cream cheese. Add in diced tomato, sauce, and tortellini and you a have filling soup that is tasty and creamy.
