Sounds delish. I once had a student that ate tortellini every Monday night and would always tell me about it the next day. I will forever think of her when I see any tortellini 🙂

I made this for dinner tonight…we all loved it very much and it was all eaten…no leftovers for tomorrow! It was delicious!
Andrea says
Is it a typo where it says cook the chicken and alfredo sauce on High for 6-8 hours? Because I tried that and it burnt the alfredo sauce pretty severely.
Marissa says
Hey Andrea,
I have found many crockpots cook time varies. It took mine at least 6 hours. My sisters take about 3 hours.
Amy says
I do another recipe and on high its done 4 hours max. So I would think it’s a typo.
