Cheesy Sausage and Tortellini

Hey y’all.

Today we are going to be making a cozy and creamy crock pot meal that you’re going to love.

It’s called cheesy sausage and tortellini and the best part is, it is going to be so simple to make.

Why You’ll Love This

It has a limited amount of ingredients and we’re going to let the crock pot do most of the work.

This is definitely comforting.

It’s a cozy, cheesy meal.

It tastes really good, though.

It has really good flavor, and it’s just very comforting.

It was a very easy meal to do, so I highly recommend you guys try this one out.

Ingredients

• one sausage link
• about 18 ounces cheese tortellini
• three cups of chicken broth
• a couple handfuls of spinach
• one can of a tortell
• salt
• pepper
• about a tablespoon and a half of Italian seasoning
• a pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
• one block of cream cheese
• about one cup of mozzarella
• about a half a cup of Italian blend

Instructions

1. The first thing that we want to do is chop up our sausage.
2. Brown this in a skillet. This is not part of the recipe, so feel free to skip this and just put everything in the crock pot if you choose to do so.
3. If browning, add my sausage to the skillet once heated.
4. Pull that from the skillet once nice and brown.
5. We’re keeping this super simple, we’re just going to dump everything in the crock pot except the cheese.
6. We’re going to start with that sausage that we just browned.
7. For the tortellini, I want to use a cheese tortellini, you need about 18 ounces.
8. We’re also going to add three cups of chicken broth.
9. We’re also going to add a couple handfuls of spinach.
10. We’re going to add one can of a tortell, it does not need to be drained.
11. We’re going to add some seasoning, start with salt, then pepper, you’ll need about a tablespoon and a half of Italian seasoning, and this is optional, but a pinch of red pepper flakes.
12. Give it a good toss to get everything kind of well combined with these seasonings in there.
13. Now that we have that toss to combine, we’re going to add one block of cream cheese on top.
14. Next, we’re going to set the crock pot on low and cook it for four to six hours.
15. For the last hour, we’re going to go ahead and add our cheeses.
16. You need about one cup of mozzarella and then you’ll need about a half a cup of the Italian blend.
17. Now I’m going to give it a quick stir to combine everything.
18. Pop the lid back on.
19. Spoon this up and do a taste test.

Cooking Tips

This is not part of the recipe, so feel free to skip this and just put everything in the crock pot if you choose to do so.

I think if I did it again, I’d probably do with the recipe calls and do a cup and a half of cheese instead of three cups of cheese because it is cheese overload y’all.

If you make this recipe, let us know in the comments.

Have a blessed week.

Bye, y’all.
