Ingredients

Scale

Soup Ingredients

  • 1 bag (about 9–12 oz) of frozen cheese tortellini
  • 2 regular-sized cans (14.5 oz each) of Italian style diced tomatoes
  • 1 box or 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 block (8 oz) cream cheese
  • 1/2 can (about 10.5 oz) condensed cheddar cheese soup

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Begin by gathering all your ingredients. No need to thaw the frozen tortellini; they will cook perfectly in the crockpot.
  2. Add Ingredients to Crockpot: In the crockpot, combine the cans of Italian style diced tomatoes (with their juice), the vegetable broth, the block of cream cheese (cut into cubes for easier melting), and the condensed cheddar cheese soup.
  3. Cook the Soup: Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low heat for 5-6 hours, or on high for about 2-3 hours, until the soup is hot and creamy and the cream cheese has fully melted and combined.
  4. Add Tortellini: About 20-30 minutes before serving, add the frozen tortellini to the crockpot. Stir gently to avoid breaking the pasta. Continue cooking until the tortellini is tender and cooked through.
  5. Final Stir and Serve: Give the soup a good stir to evenly mix all ingredients. Adjust seasoning if necessary, then ladle into bowls and enjoy your creamy crockpot tortellini soup!

Notes

  • You can substitute vegetable broth for chicken broth if you prefer a non-vegetarian version.
  • For a spicier kick, add red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce while cooking.
  • Fresh herbs such as basil or parsley can be added before serving to enhance flavor.
  • To make the soup thicker, reduce the broth quantity slightly or let it cook uncovered for the last 30 minutes.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; tortellini may absorb some soup and soften over time.
