Now add the soup ingredients (along with the browned turkey) to the crock pot: carrots, celery, chicken broth, diced tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, seasonings and bay leaves. Stir to combine.
Set the crock pot on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.
When the time is up, remove the bay leaves. Turn the crockpot on low. Then add in the tortellini, cream cheese and spinach. Stir to combine and put on the lid. Let the cream cheese melt into the soup, allow the spinach to wilt and the tortellini to soften. About 15 minutes.
