Slow Cooker Vegetable Soup

Slow cooker vegetable soup in a large bowl

It really doesn’t get easier than Slow Cooker Vegetable Soup, right? Throw everything in the crockpot, set for 8 hours and dinner is ready when you get home. A healthy, satisfying dinner! And the house smells sooooo good!

I’ve included barley in this recipe too for the bigger appetites in the family. And if your carnivores want more, pick up a rotisserie chicken on the way home to add more and stretch this recipe for an extra day. Best thing about this dish is that you can include any leftover veggies you happen to have in the fridge. In this day of rising food prices, we’ve got to make the most of our produce.

I’ve been chopping and freezing leftover veggies and storing them in the freezer for something just like this. You can even prep your veggies the night before so that it’s just a matter of tossing everything in the pot before heading out the door in the morning.
