Time 4h15m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound (500 g) ground Italian sausage ((or ground chicken, turkey or beef), browned*)
1 onion, (chopped)
2 large carrots, (chopped)
2 stalks celery, (chopped)
4 cloves garlic, (minced)
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
2 teaspoon beef bouillon powder ((or chicken))
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 cups beef broth ((or chicken or vegetable broth -- I use low sodium))
1/4 cup cornstarch mixed and dissolved in 1/4 cup water
36 ounces evaporated milk or half and half
12 ounce packet three cheese tortellini ((I used dried not fresh; choose any flavour you like))
5 cups fresh baby spinach
1 cup milk

Steps:

  • Place the browned sausage, onion, carrots, celery, garlic, Italian seasoning, beef bouillon powder, salt, and broth in a 6-quart / litre slow cooker bowl. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 7 hours.
  • Uncover and skim any fat that is sitting on the top of the soup with a spoon; discard. Stir in the cornstarch mixture with the evaporated milk (or half and half or cream). Add the tortellini and mix well. Cover again and cook on HIGH heat setting for a further 45 minutes until the soup has thickened, and the tortellini is soft and cooked through.
  • Add in the spinach, pressing the leaves down to completely submerse into the liquid. Cover again for a further 5-10 minutes until the leaves have wilted.
  • Pour in milk in 1/3 cup increments, as needed, to reach your desired thickness and consistency (I needed 1 cup); taste test and season with extra salt ONLY if needed, and pepper to suit your tastes.
  • Serve with crusty warmed bread

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN TORTELLINI TOMATO SOUP



Slow Cooker Chicken Tortellini Tomato Soup image

This satisfying soup is an excellent one-pot dinner to come home to after a long day. It takes only 10 minutes to throw it together in the morning and 10 minutes to finish it in the evening. If you plan to be away for eight hours or more, set the cook time for four hours, then set the slow cooker to auto-switch to warm for the remaining time. (This prevents overcooking.) If you'll be home when the soup is done and can remove it from the heat, it's best to cook the chicken for five to six hours. Add only the tortellini you will eat right away. Leftover tortellini will get mushy.

Time 6h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 1/2 cups chicken stock
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, preferably fire-roasted
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, preferably aged
6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano (from about 3 to 4 sprigs) or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons onion powder
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
1 3/4 to 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
5 ounces baby spinach
1 (8- to 10-ounce) package refrigerated cheese tortellini
1 cup grated Parmesan, for serving
Torn or sliced fresh basil, for serving
Black pepper, for serving

Steps:

  • In a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker, whisk together the stock, wine and tomato paste until the paste dissolves. Stir in the tomatoes, vinegar, garlic, oregano, onion powder, red-pepper flakes and salt. (If you are using unsalted stock, add an additional 1/2 teaspoon salt.) Add the chicken and stir to combine. Cook on low until the chicken is very tender and the flavors are blended, 5 to 6 hours.
  • Increase the heat to high for 10 minutes. Coarsely shred the chicken with two forks, pressing pieces of chicken against the side of the slow cooker to break the thighs apart. Stir in the spinach so that it wilts into the soup.
  • Stir in the tortellini, cover the slow cooker, and cook until the tortellini are al dente and warmed through, about 3 minutes. Taste the soup and add salt if it tastes flat. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve with Parmesan, basil and black pepper.

SLOW-COOKER CREAMY TOMATO AND TORTELLINI SOUP



Slow-Cooker Creamy Tomato and Tortellini Soup image

As they say, opposites attract. That's certainly the case with sweet, acidic tomatoes and creamy dairy-in all its many forms. After all, it's this better-together combination that makes lasagna so luxurious, pizza so mouthwatering and grilled cheese and tomato soup so irresistible. So when we set out to make an extra-easy slow-cooker soup, we knew we wanted it to feature this combo. But hold on-dairy in the slow cooker? That's usually a less-than-ideal combination (dairy can easily curdle in the slow cooker). That's why the trick to this recipe is waiting until the end to add the cream and cheesy tortellini. That's right, we decided a double-dose of dairy would be the perfect complement to the tomatoes in this soup, and the result is rich, velvety and very comforting! And that's not all, the dollop of fresh pesto adds bright, anise-tinged notes and the sprinkle of shredded Parmesan adds nutty richness that take this simple soup to the next level!
