Sausage Tortellini Soup Recipe:

I strongly recommend fresh tortellini noodles from the refrigerator section of the grocery store. I have used the dried tortellini noodles. They don’t have the texture or the flavor of fresh.

This soup is sustaining. However, add some dinner rolls or crusty french bread if you love those. My husband will have toasty bread with ANY meal.

Put together a delicious Kale Apple salad  with honey dressing for a sweeter salad side. It’s a beautiful light salad that goes with this heavy smoky soup really well.

Substitution Ideas:

If you are out of something go ahead and substitute. Want to try a new flavor? Ok. Here are some of my ideas.

  • Kielbasa sausage is hard to beat. The flavor is intense and smoky. Just the way we like it. However, you can change up the sausage.
  • Turn it into Italian sausage tortellini soup by using a bulk italian sausage and Italian seasoning. You will need to brown any bulk sausage you choose to use before cooking it with the other ingredients. This gives you the best texture and flavor.
  • Low fat Spicy Chicken sausage is another nice choice for this crockpot sausage tortellini soup. Tortellini noodles will also work well with a hot Italian sausage or any hot sausage you like. Chorizo anyone? 🙂 (let me know if you try that)
  • This time I omitted the tomato sauce and carrots (I was out of both). I used sweet potatoes for the carrots. They worked amazingly well.
  • So did my homemade sun dried tomatoes instead of the canned tomatoes and sauce. I added more chicken broth (a whole quart instead of two cups). To make up for the lost liquid.
  • hot peppers can be added if you can take the heat. 🙂
