This really is an easy recipe! Kids and teens can help prepare crockpot meals because everything is cold or room temperature to start with.

Basically, you dump all of the ingredients into the crock, then put the bay leaves on top. Cook on Low for 4-6 hours.

Yes, it’s that simple! That’s why it’s often on our meal plan.

What do you serve with vegetable soup?

You could easily add potatoes, rice or pasta to this soup recipe if you like to have carbs in it. We choose not to do that, since my husband is diabetic and I like portion control. We tend to serve bread or rolls on the side of soups so the kids can have it all to themselves.

I like to make a batch of this soup at the beginning of the week and eat it for lunch each day. It’s such a healthy way to fill up on yummy vegetables!

Can you freeze vegetable soup?

Of course! Decide whether you want to freeze the ingredients in a zipper bag before or after cooking. You could do the meal prep and freeze ahead, then just thaw the bag overnight before loading the slow cooker.

Alternately, wait until after cooking and cool the soup completely before freezing. Remember to leave extra space in the freezer bag, since the soup will expand with freezing.
