CHICKEN, SPINACH, AND TORTELLINI SOUP



Chicken, Spinach, and Tortellini Soup image

This is a quick and easy 'what's in the pantry' soup. I used homemade chicken stock that I had in the freezer and leftover store-bought rotisserie chicken, but the tortellini soup is great with whatever you have on hand.

CROCKPOT CREAMY TORTELLINI, SPINACH & CHICKEN SOUP



Crockpot Creamy Tortellini, Spinach & Chicken Soup image

I've made this several times now, changing it a bit to suit our mood, and we've loved it every time we've had it. I usually don't heat my cream in the microwave anymore (see step #3). Instead, I measure the amount of cream I'll need and leave it out to reach room temperature, and I've never had a problem with the cream...

Stir. Cover and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours (or until chicken is very tender). 3. Remove the lid and add in tortellini and spinach, Parmesan cheese and warmed cream (cream should be warmed because it may cause curdling if added in cold). 4.

Put the lid back on and cook on HIGH for about 10 more minutes, or until the tortellini are cooked through. Ladle into serving bowls and enjoy!
