Notes
- Brown the Italian sausage in a medium pan on the stovetop, then drain and add to the soup.
- Don't add the tortellini to the soup too soon or the noodles can become mushy.
- Avoid using non or low fat cream cheese. Neufchatel (1/3 fat of cream cheese) doesn't melt as well and leaves little curds.
