I know, I know — it’s March. I should probably be posting grilling recipes by now, or if not at the very least St. Patrick’s Day, Easter and Mother’s Day.
But I’m still hung up on soup.
Do we need more examples??
I don’t know about you, but I love soup — and it’s the perfect winter meal! It’s also one of the only ways that I get a ton of veggies in my diet and enjoy eating them.
But I also love a good thick soup that’s rich and creamy (and I think you do, too, because this Slow Cooker Garlic Parmesan Stew has been going positively nuts!). And that’s where this Vegetable Soup comes in.

I stuck with my favorite veggies in this one — carrots, peas, potatoes (I used Little Potatoes because they’re so creamy) — and I threw in a couple extra for good measure — spinach, green beans and celery. One of the best things about soup (for me, anyways) is how the flavors all meld together after such a long time cooking together, which is why I love cooking them in the slow cooker!
Soups also freeze great, so you can make a large batch and munch on it all week long, or fill some freezer containers to enjoy later when life is a little more hectic. I know I never regret throwing extra food in the freezer!
Feel free to mix up the vegetables with your favorites — mushrooms, leeks, peppers, kale, add in different spices — go nuts!

I took some liberties and used the basics of this but doubled the quantities. I used a sweet potato and some small russets, more than double carrots, three stalks of celery, an onion, a can of corn, two cups of cut fresh green beans, a bell pepper, a cup of mushrooms, a bag of frozen peas, spinach and double all the rest.
It is delicious and very filling!!!
