Tortellini in the Crock Pot

INGREDIENTS
 1 (19oz) bag of frozen cheese tortellini
1 small bag of fresh spinach (I used about half of a 5 oz package, but more is better!)
2 (14.5 oz) cans of Italian style diced tomatoes, drained
1 block (8 oz) of cream cheese** (softened in microwave)
1 lb. of ground sausage or chicken/turkey sausage
3-4 cups of chicken broth (start with 3, add 1 more if it looks like it needs it)


DIRECTIONS:
1.  Brown the sausage and put all ingredients in crockpot,  chunking up the cream cheese.
2.  Cook on low for 4-6 hrs.


Notes:  *Keep an eye on your tortellini, it may be done sooner.
*If still soupy, leave lid off for the last half hour or so of cooking.
