  • This can be made in slow cooker or stove top

  • Combine spaghetti sauce, meat, cream cheese, chicken broth, and mushrooms in a slow cooker.
  • Cook on low for 6 hours or high on 2-3 hrs.
  • 20 minutes before serving, turn heat to high if it isn't already and stir in frozen tortellini and spinach.
