Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • 1 lb Italian sausage casings removed
  • 1 bag 19 oz frozen cheese tortellini
  • 1 jar 24 oz marinara sauce
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated

Instructions
 

  • Directions:
  • Brown the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the Italian sausage, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks. Once fully cooked, drain any excess grease.
  • Combine Ingredients: Transfer the browned sausage to the crockpot and add frozen tortellini, marinara sauce, and chicken broth. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  • Cook: Set your crockpot to low and cook for 4-5 hours, or on high for 2-3 hours, until the tortellini is tender and the flavors have melded.
  • Add Cheese: In the last 30 minutes of cooking, sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheeses over the top. Cover the crockpot to allow the cheese to melt smoothly.
  • Season and Serve: Before serving, season the dish with salt and pepper to enhance the flavors.
