Re: Crockpot Soups
Sweet Potato Soup
1 large or 2 small sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed 1 apple, peeled and sliced (I used granny smith, and I didn't peel it - it pureed fine) 14 oz of broth (I used natural chicken - the flavor was a little strong & I should have used half water) salt & pepper & rosemary (I used 1/4 teaspoon - that wasn't enough) to taste Put in a crockpot on low & cook 8-10 hours. When it's done, put it in a blender or use a hand blender to puree. Yum!

Re: Crockpot Soups
This makes a HUGE amount of soup. It's too big for my crock, which is either a 4 or 6 qt. I also added broccoli stems the first time I made it.
Hearty Lentil Soup 2 cups green lentils 1 head garlic, peeled and finely minced or pressed 2 med. onions finely chopped 1 1/2 T olive oil 1/2 bunch celery chopped into 1/2 inch pieces 4-5 carrots sliced into 1/2 inch pieces 4 medium potatoes cut into 1 inch cubes 8 to 10 cups water or stock 2 bay leafs (remove before serving) 1 T finely chopped parsley 1 tsp. Thyme 1 tsp. Oregano salt and pepper to taste Throw it all into a crockpot on low & cook for 8-10 hours.

Re: Crockpot Soups
Taco Soup - my most well received recipe. Everyone loves it. The ingredients sound bizarre, I know. Had you told me what was in it before I tried it, I probably wouldn't have. Just trust me on this … it's yummy!
2lbs hamburger 1 onion (optional) 2 envelopes dry ranch seasoning ½ envelope taco seasoning ( I usually just use the whole envelope..) 2 cans rotel (mild) 2 cans shoepeg corn (I only use 1, personal preference) 1 can black beans 1 can kidney beans 1 can pinto beans (I use the store brand for everything except shoepeg corn-can't find it in the generic!) Brown hamburger and onions (add salt and pepper to taste). Put hamburger/onion into your crock pot. Throw the rest in as well, mix it up, and simmer. I drain about half of the juice off of the beans and corn. I do sometimes end up adding about ½ of a can of water back into it, depending on the consistency once I have everything mixed together. This should be a thick soup, not lots and lots of juice. I let it cook for a few hours and serve with shredded cheese and tortilla chips. Super good! --- White Chili 2 cans rotel 1 can chicken broth 2 cans chopped green chilies 5-6 cans great white northern beans 2 envelopes of taco seasoning dry onions to taste 1-2 cups of pork broth Any kind cut of pork (whatever's cheapest! ) . I usually have about 2lbs of meat and cook it in the crockpot most of the day so I can get good broth later when I mix it all together. Once the pork is done, shred it up. Then, throw all ingredients into the pot (I usually do stove but you could put it back in the crock pot) and let it simmer for at least an hour. I serve this one with flour tortillas for dipping.
