9-Ingredient Cheesy Italian Sausage & Tortellini Soup Recipe

Do you have an Instapot? I do and I love how it can make this gourmet soup recipe ready to serve in no time at all. The Instapot Pressure Cooker is so convenient for making a multi-step recipe.

Don’t have an Instapot? No worries, because you can make this same recipe in a stewpot on the stove or in a crockpot. It will just take slightly longer to boil and savor the flavors.
