1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground Italian sausage (I used mild, but you can choose mild or hot depending on your spiciness preference.)
4 teaspoons minced garlic
24 oz Marinara Sauce
1/2 cup beef broth
1/2 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
19 oz bag frozen cheese tortellini
1 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

In a large skillet or micro cooker, brown and drain 1 lb ground beef and 1 lb ground Italian sausage together.
While your beef and sausage are cooking, add 4 teaspoons minced garlic, 19 oz bag frozen cheese tortellini, 24 oz Marinara Sauce and 1/2 teaspoon Italian Seasoning to your 6 Quart Crock Pot.
Use the 1/2 cup beef broth to rinse out the marinara sauce jar and pour in the crock pot.
Pour the browned and drained beef and sausage in the crock pot and stir until everything is well combined.
Cover and cook on low for 1-1.5 hours or high for 30-45 minutes, stir everything well and sprinkle 1 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese and 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese evenly on top of everything.
Cover and cook on low for an additional 1-1.5 hours or high for an additional 30-45 minutes. It is done when your cheese is melted.

As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.

All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
