My crockpot only has 4 hrs 6 hrs 8 hrs 10hrs
the 4 and 6 are high and 8 and q0 are low
Which setting should I use?
Hi Melissa ~ you could try the 4 hour high setting, but you will need to remove it about 2.5 hours early. When cooked on high, this recipe only takes about 1.5 hours to finish.
Hi, I’m so excited to make this! Got everything I need but I want to double the recipe. Do I need to cook it longer if I’m doubling the recipe?
Hi Melissa ~ if doubling the recipe I would recommend either using two separate crockpots and cooking the regular amount in each, or using a larger crockpot and lengthening the time a bit. ENJOY!
Hi, my crockpot just quit workingcan I bake this in the oven?
Hi Tami… I think that would work just fine! Here is a similar style Baked Ravioli that you could follow along as a starting point for baking temperature and times…

Can I use frozen shrimp?
I haven’t ever tried, Rosemary… but if you do, let me know how it turns out!
I bought frozen and thawed it out before I put it in with everything else. delicious
Made this tonight. Very easy and very delicious. Followed the recipe but added Everything but the Bagel seasoning to my personal bowl….Fantastic Recipe
Ooh… that sounds like such a delicious addition! 🙂
If I add chicken, does it have to be cooked first?
Hi Dana ~ yes, if you’d like to add in chicken, I would recommend cooked shredded or cubed chicken.
Yum that sounds so good and creamy! I am such a big fan of alfredo pasta so having it with tortellini pasta would be sooo comforting! Thanks for sharing this yummy recipe!
You’re very welcome, Christie! It really is the ultimate comfort food combo! 🙂
Can I use the dry tortellini? If so, do I need to change the recipe at all?
Hi Nicole ~ the refrigerated tortellini really works best in this recipe.
Hey there, my grocery store substitutes the tortellini for the dry kind in a box 🙁 do you think it will get cooked just by being in the pot for 3 hours or do you think I need to boil them before placing them in? I just don’t want them all soggy.
I am wanting to make your crockpot alfredo tortellini, but I was wondering if it would work to use frozen tortellini?
Hi Michelle ~ yes, you can use frozen tortellini, but you may need to extend the cook time. Hope that helps!
