STEPS

1

Cook sausage in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; stir frequently and break up meat with a spatula into lima bean-sized pieces, until browned, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove sausage from skillet; add to a 6-quart slow cooker.

2

Add chopped onion and celery to the same skillet; cook and stir until vegetables begin to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook, stirring, about 30 seconds.

3

Pour vegetable mixture into the slow cooker. Add tomatoes with juices; break tomatoes into bite-sized pieces. Add chicken stock or broth, stir to distribute evenly, cover, and cook on Low for 7 to 8 hours, or on High for 3 to 4 hours.

4

About halfway through the cooking process, season with salt and pepper, and add Italian herb seasoning blend.

5

About 30 minutes before serving, turn slow cooker to High, add tortellini and kale, and adjust seasoning. Cover and cook until tortellini is tender, about 30 minutes.

6

Serve warm, and garnish with grated Parmesan cheese.
