Slow Cooker Veggie Soup

I've been bad about posting what I eat. In my defense, this is the first extended amount of time that I've been anywhere near my computer all weekend. I also haven't had a lot of time to cook anything...crazy weekend. I had two family birthdays, a bake sale to bake for, a conference, and a meeting. 

I don't usually like spending this much time away from home. I'm a homebody. I also hate eating out. It's a pain in the butt figuring out what to eat. A salad seems like a safe option, but some salads can pack a calorie count that exceeds my total daily limit. Insanity. What really drives me crazy is when a restaurant has no nutritional information available....ughh..

All ranting aside, I did make a slow-cooker soup that turned out really tasty. It's packed with veggies, so I can eat a lot without feeling guilty. 


Slow Cooker Soup
Yields....lots of servings

Ingredients:
1 Can Cut Green Beans
2 Cans of Swanson Low Sodium Chicken Broth
1 Can of Goya Garbanzo Beans (Chickpeas) 
1 Can of Corn
1 Can of Sliced or Diced Potatoes
1 Bag of Frozen Mixed Veggies

Drain the liquids out of the cans of veggies then toss all of the ingredients into the crock pot. I cooked it on low for 7 hours. I'm sure it doesn't take that long, but I had it going while I was at work on Friday. I hope you enjoy it as much as I am!
