This slow cooker creamy tortellini soup with sausage is a comfort in a bowl, perfect for those chilly Midwest evenings. I came across a version of this recipe when trying to recreate a dish my grandmother used to make, but with a modern spin that fits into my hectic work schedule. The creamy base, hearty sausage, and tender tortellini make it a family favorite you’ll keep coming back to!
This soup pairs beautifully with a fresh, crisp Caesar salad and a slice of warm, crusty bread to soak up all that delicious creamy broth. You might also want to include some simple steamed veggies on the side to balance out the richness of the soup.
