Slow Cooker Vegetable Soup
Any day I can raid the produce aisles of my local grocery store is a day I can feel good about. For me, the more veggies I can use, the better the dish will taste. The variety keeps it exciting up through the very last spoonful! Feel free to substitute the veggies here for others that better suit your tastes.
