    Ingredients

    1 lb  Italian Sausage

    20 oz  Frozen Three-Cheese Tortellini

    32 oz  Low Sodium Chicken Broth

    2 can  Italian Diced Tomatoes

    8 1/2 oz  Cream Cheese or Neufchâtel Cheese

    Grated Parmesan Cheese for topping



    1. Take your cream cheese  out of the fridge, and let it soften while you brown your meat.

      • Add the sausage and tortellini to your Crock Pot. Pour the tomatoes, liquid and all, and broth over the top. Add your cream cheese to the Pot in chunks.

        • Give your Crock Pot a good stir to get everything evenly distributed, making sure the liquids are adequately covering the tortellini.
          +
          • Cook on LOW for a total of 3 1/2-4 hours. Stir at 1 1/2 hours, and again at 3 hours, removing the lid for the last 30 minutes of cooking. This will give the sauce some time to thicken up. You can leave the lid off longer if you need more thickening time, but stir every so often. Enjoy!!
