Slow Cooker Chicken Alfredo Tortellini

This was a great recipe. If you have the time, make your own Alfredo sauce. It's so much better than the jar. Heat a stick of butter and a package of cream cheese over medium heat whisking until smooth. Add 2 t garlic powder and slowly add 2 cups of milk and 2 cups of parmesan cheese and 1/2 t of pepper

Honestly will not make again. Tasted like human cat food. The chicken turned kinda mushy and the tortellini just seemed strange in it. Not sure why I love both chicken and tortellini and Alfredo but put the three together and it was a miss in my household.

This is so super delicious, I could literally eat this several times a week!! I wasn't sure if the 1.5lbs of chicken breasts that the recipe called for would be enough for my family of 4, so I used a 2.75lb package of chicken breasts and probably double the tortellini. So to ensure it stayed creamy, I added to the crock about a 1/4 cup of heavy cream and one 8oz block of cream cheese with the chicken and Alfredo sauce, and cooked it. After adding the tortellini, I stirred in the recommended spices, remaining Alfredo, and about 1/4 cup of sour cream. I had some shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and garlic & herb croutons that I set out for toppings if anyone desired, and I served it with a side of cut green Italian beans. Perfect dinner!!!

I would throw in extra sauce, for me personally it wasn't saucy enough.
