Preparation

Step 1

Wash and cut all veggies into rough pieces and put in a 4 quart slow cooker.

Combine all ingredients in slow cooker with water and stock. Omit or add some water depending on volume of ingredients in pot.

Cook until all ingredients are soft; about 2 to 3 hours on high or 6 to 8 on low.

Using a hand blender, puree all ingredients in cooker until smooth. Continue cooking on low until all flavours have combined and you're ready to eat.
