Here is another easy-to-put-together crockpot recipe – this soup tastes great the day it is made and will freeze nicely as well for later, ready-to-eat dinners. If you put it together in the morning, you will have a great dinner in the evening. Serve it with a sandwich or fresh bread – it is very filling to be a meal of its own!
