Ideas for summer
During the warm months of the year, One thing that you can try is to allow the soup to cool just a bit, so it won’t be too warm on those steamy summer nights. And pairing the soup with a nice cool salad and some fresh fruit can help you to provide a filling, nutrient-rich meal to your family.
This soup only takes about 15 minutes to prepare. Just chop up the ingredients, throw them in the slow cooker, turn it on and go! It cooks through the day and makes your house smell amazing and when you are ready for dinner, it’s ready to go! It also uses produce staples that you will typically have on hand…and you have the option of using either vegetable broth or homemade bone broth. If you want to make this soup go a little farther…simply add a few more veggies and an extra cup of broth or water! That will make your soup go even farther!
