This Slow Cooker Tomato Tortellini Soup was a huge hit in our house. We ate this for dinner and leftover for lunch the next day. I am already planning on making this again very soon. I just can’t get enough of this soup!!! The creaminess comes from onion and chive cream cheese. It adds SO much flavor to the soup! I could eat this every week this fall and winter and never tire of it!! All you need is some crusty bread and you have an amazing no-fuss weeknight meal!

Notes:
Steph
What size slow cooker are you using? Mine is only 4 quart. I dont want to run out of room for all of the goodness!!!
I used a 6-quart slow cooker
I made this in my instant pot last night and it was perfect. This is the second time ive made this. The first time i used 2 containers of cream cheese but i have found that one is enough. I have also passed this recipe on to many friends . I make this with regular ground breakfast sausage with a little italian seasoning . My husband doesn’t like italian sausage
How long do you cook it in the instant pot if you don’t mind me asking? Thanks
This was a great soup. My BIL is still talking about it a week later. I only used 1 tub of cream cheese.
This was the BEST quick soup I’ve ever had! My guests don’t eat sausage so I substituted cooked chicken.
I will absolutely make this again!
This sounds sooo good! My husband won’t eat onion or chives though. Is there another type of cream cheese you recommend?
You cannot tell there are onion or chives in it because it melts into it. I doubt he’s notice one bit.
Thank you! Made this last night for a warm dinner after a very cold day. It was very good!!
So glad you enjoyed it!!
Can this be frozen??
Can this be frozen??
I think you could freeze the leftovers
What would be a good replacement for sausage – – chicken maybe?
Ground beef or you can leave it out
I am making this today but I'm using ground beef because I don't like sausage. I can't wait to try it!!
Can frozen tortellini be used?
Yes – I used some thawed frozen tortellini last time I made it and it was just as delicious!
I just made it on the stove top and it worked just fine. I had to let it simmer for about 30 or 40 min to cook some of the liquid down before adding the cream cheese. I ended up adding fresh spinach at the very end and it was FANTASTIC. This soup hit the spot! I'll definitely be making it again.
This came out really nice on the stove top. Thank you!
I want to add baby spinach, glad you did and it turned out great!!

Might be a silly question.. but did you drain the diced tomatoes?
No – just dump the whole can in the slow cooker.
Anyone have a better idea instead of a can of tomato soup? Tomato juice along with can of tomato sauce? Any ideas I would love to hear. Thanks!
I obviously don't have a "better idea" since I made it this way and LOVED it. You are more than welcome to experiment with the recipe and make it to your liking.
What kind of Italian sausage did you use? Sweet? Mild? Regular?
It is whatever you prefer.
Thanks, Stephanie! Can't wait to ate this.
Is the tomato soup condensed or the ready to eat kind?
Looks fabulous!
Thanks!
I used Campbells condensed tomato soup – it is SO good!! Enjoy!
Can I thaw my frozen tortellini out before putting in crock pot or should I go buy refrigerated?
I think thawing frozen tortellini should work just fine.
Can you do high on the crock pot for a shorter amount of time??
yes
Looks delicious – great shots
Made this for dinner tonight — I was very curious about the ingredients. DELICIOUS!! Whole family liked it. Will now to into our soup rotation. Makes alot.
could you do this on the stove and not use a slow cooker? if so, how long would you cook the sausage and soups before adding the cheese and tortellini?
I was wondering the same thing. Trying it tonight on the stove.
Did anyone ever try a stove top version of this?
Brown the sausage, add the soup, broth, and tomatoes, bring to a boil. Add tortellini and cream cheese. Cook until the cheese has melted and the tortellini is softened.
