Old Fashioned Vegetable Soup In The CrockPot

  • eastcoaster 3 years ago
    Made for November 2020’s Slow Cooker/ Dutch Oven Recipe Challenge.

    I love soup, so I like trying other folks soup recipes. This one is close to how I make
    vegetable soup. I basically followed the recipe, I make my own stock so I did skip that step of boiling the bones. The only vegetable I didn’t add was the corn, I don’t have canned corn but I do have frozen but I just forgot.I did not add the celery salt only because I find the celery gives it a nice flavour on its own. I did add a cube of basil and garlic just to give it a little bit of oomf.
    A good hearty soup perfect on a cool day served with either crackers, a thick slice of
    fresh Italian bread or home made biscuits.
    This cooked in less then 3 hours.

    That looks delicious Manella! Good idea to add some garlic and basil, it looks like it could use some oomph. I could see making this with some beef bones. I like to save short ribs and prime rib bones for broth, bookmarking!

    Thank you Shona, yup sometimes flavor has to be added, and to me garlic in a vegetable soup is a must.I keep all the bones also, ham, pork, chicken and when i have enough i make a big pot of stock. I like to keep some in the freezer, always handy. It seems now with so much boneless meat it is hard to come by with bone in meat, and i refuse to buy soup bones. The are way to expensive for what you get. $6.99 a pound!!!! and that is just the bone, no meat or marrow. Ok rant over:))))

    Oooo, another bowl of wonderful looking soup Manella! Love the photo and like the use of meat bones. I'm sure too adding even more veggies would be delicious.

    I swore I commented on this already!! With all of these veggie soups being made, it's making me want to make a big pot for myself! This one looks so good Manella and I love the addition of turnips in this, I don't use them enough. Bookmarked :)
