A VEGGIE FILLED CROCK POT SOUP
I love my crock pot all year long, it doesn’t matter the season – give me a crock pot and I can make anything! This Crock Pot Vegetable Soup is one of my favorites when I want a hearty soup that isn’t too “heavy”. It is a simple to prepare soup with serious flavor and loaded with ALL the vegetables. The perfect soup to make on a cold weather day when you are craving something extra comforting. Vegetable soup is also a great way to use up all those bags of vegetables that have been hanging out in your freezer.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Yes. But keep in mind frozen vegetables are frozen at the peak of freshness so they really are the perfect vegetable to use (especially if they aren’t in season).
If you are choosing to use all fresh vegetables, you will probably have to adjust cooking time. Potatoes take the longest to cook, so if you are using them, you should continue to cook on high for 6 to 7 hours. I haven’t tested it with only fresh vegetables so you’ll have to play the timing by ear.
Absolutely. You could add a pound of ground beef that has been cooked and drained of its fat. Add it in when you add all of the other vegetables.
We like to serve this Crock Pot Vegetable Soup with some bread, our favorite being crusty such as sourdough, rye, French baguette, multigrain, or white bread.
Just leave it out. I understand that it’s not an easy to find in areas outside of the south. It will still be tasty without it.
The soup can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator where it will keep for up to 3-4 days. This can also be frozen, what we like to do is place cooled soup in freezer bags and lay them flat in the freezer. These should keep for up to 6 months. Let defrost in the refrigerator and reheat on the stove or in microwave.
