Tips and techniques for creamy crockpot soup

• For maximum creaminess, it's best to use heavy cream and don't replace it with half and half or evaporated milk. Also, be sure to use full fat cream cheese and parmesan cheese.
• Make sure both ingredients are full fat for maximum creaminess.
• Adjust amount of spices, based on your preference.
• You can replace all the spices with 1-2 tablespoon Italian seasoning.
• Don't omit heavy cream with milk since that will reduce the creaminess.
• Tortellinis can be omitted if you want to enjoy a simple creamy tomato soup.
• You can also make this soup on the stovetop and and it will be ready in under 1 hour.
• If you don’t have a hand-held immersion blender, you can pour the soup in a blender and puree it in there.
• Use low sodium broth to prevent this meal from becoming too salty.
• Fresh garnish enhances flavor and either of these are a great choice: Fresh cilantro, basil, rosemary, chives.
• For maximum cheese flavor, use cheese tortellinis and also add lots of freshly grated parmesan cheese on top, prior to serving.
• For vegetarian version, use vegetable broth and use soy cheeses and thick coconut milk instead of heavy cream. However, coconut has a strong flavor and will alter the flavor greatly. Another substitute for heavy cream is dairy-free half and half, which won't affect the flavor drastically.

Variations

• Chicken tortellini soup- Mix in 1 cup shredded rotisserie chicken when you add the heavy cream, cream cheese and tortellini and let it all cook together for 30 minutes.
• Spinach tortellini soup- Use spinach stuffed tortellini and/or you can also stir in ⅓ cup frozen spinach (thawed and drained of excess water).
• Italian sausage tortellini soup- Mix in 1 cup cooked Italian sausage when you add the heavy cream, cream cheese and tortellini and let it all cook together for 30 minutes.
• Turn this into a tortellini brodo soup- It means "tortellini in broth" and typically has just 4 ingredients: Tortellini, Broth, Salt, Pepper. Since there are such few ingredients, they should be very high quality for maximum flavor.
