How to make Smoked Sausage Tortellini in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
I have quite the treat for you! This Crock Pot Smoked Sausage Tortellini is super easy to put together, and was an absolute hit around my house. The flavors all come together to give you a delicious and filling meal to serve. It is so good that my twelve year old has declared it his favorite tortellini dish.
You could possibly serve this dish as your entire meal. There is some meat, veggies, dairy and pasta all in one. If that is the case, then this will probably serve about four people. However, if you serve this with a side dish or two, this will make about five or six servings. Whether you serve this one its own or with some yummy sides, I hope you and your loved ones enjoy it as much as we do in my home.
