Slow Cooker Sausage Tortellini Soup

I have another tasty soup for you today. This Sausage Tortellini Soup is made in the slow cooker. It includes Italian sausage, spinach, and tortellini pasta with a creamy base.

This soup is full of flavor and I just love the creamy base. You do need to brown the sausage in a skillet first, but then the rest of the cooking is all done in the slow cooker. It’s a beautiful flavorful soup that let’s the slow cooker do most of the work for you. Pair it with some delicious bread and you are set.
