The smell of this simmering in the crock pot will have everyone on the edge of their seats waiting for dinner time! Vegetable soup is a timeless recipe. I can remember my great grandmother serving me vegetable soup as a child. What a sneaky way to get a child to eat their veggies! No one can resist a bowl of soul warming soup! I love to serve this soup on Sunday’s. I can just throw it in the crock pot in the morning and come home from church to a ready to eat delicious lunch! This is such an easy meal with few ingredients which makes it perfect for serving a large crowd so feel free to invite the family over for an after church get together.
