Slow Cooker Johnny Soup

What do you do when Peapod sends Cannellini Beans instead of Split Peas? Make Johnny Soup instead. I was skeptical at first, but once I smelled the aromas from the slow cooker I was hooked.
For this soup, we used leftover ham, but you can use a ham steak, ham hock, etc. You can also use stock or broth, but just plain water was really good. It is up to you. This is basically the same recipe as my Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup, which is really good. It is all good, but I really love the carrots in it. There is just something so good about carrots from the slow cooker.
Good luck during those 8 hours that it is cooking. I wanted to eat asap, but I had to wait. It was so good, that even my fussy son liked it. And he does not like soup.
Enjoy!

Slow Cooker Tomato Soup Slow Cooker Tomato Soup
Grilled cheese and tomato soup? A match made in heaven. A couple of months ago, we found out that our son loves tomato soup. Granted, it came from a can, but he still loved it.I decided to take my stovetop recipe and make it in the slow cooker. To me, the slow cooker was made for soups and sauces. When my son tried my soup, he devoured it. He likes to eat, but he is picky about what he eats. If that makes sense.I love carrots, so I add it to the soup. Gives it more of a nutritious punch. Add the cream, milk, or as I do, coconut milk at the end; when you blend it all together. It gives it a nicer texture.Eat this with grilled cheese, a quesadilla, goldfish, crackers, etc.Enjoy!

Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup
My wife and I love Split Pea Soup. The weird thing is that I hate peas by themselves. I will systematically remove them from anything that has them. We took an old recipe that she has had for a while and converted it to the slow cooker.After a few tries and tweaks, we have worked out all the kinks and made a great soup. It is so good and it will thicken as time passes. It goes great with some rolls to dip into it. One of the best split pea soups that I have ever had. I am sure that this can be made into a vegan dish, by taking out the ham and replacing the chicken stock with vegetable. Worth the try.This is the prototypical slow cooker recipe. You just put all of the ingredients into the slow cooker, set the time, and forget about it for 8 hours. You can try to forget about it, but the smell will drive you crazy those 8 long hours. Be strong, the wait will be worth it.Enjoy! J.A.B. -
Simple Slow Cooker Vegetable Soup Simple Slow Cooker Vegetable Soup
I used to use this recipe for the stovetop and now I use it for the slow cooker. You can use fresh vegetables, which I prefer, but if you are short on time then frozen is just as good. You can serve it with cubed chicken ,cooked noodles, rice, pasta, matzo ball, etc. Or just as is. #mycookbookEnjoy! J.A.B. -

Slow Cooker Black Bean Soup Slow Cooker Black Bean Soup
This soup is delicious both on hot summer days or the cold winter days. It goes well with "Cuban Yellow Rice". Reduce the amount of water to 4-4.5 cups to make simmered black beans instead of a soup."Don't open the lid of the slow cooker while it's cooking!" is what I was told...

Creamy Tomato Soup - Slow Cooker Creamy Tomato Soup - Slow Cooker
Another easy dump and go recipe. Perfect for busy weeknights and chilly evenings. I like to serve with some grilled cheese sandwiches, but you could just do some extra cheese and croutons on top or you could stir in some cooked pasta or cooked rice to make it a more filling main meal. This recipe makes quite a lot of soup, but without the cream and cheese it can be frozen or you can half the recipe in a 4 qt sized slow cooker.. Christina -
