You're going to use a mix of fresh vegetables, canned tomatoes, tomato sauce, and a bag of frozen veggies for this Crock Pot Vegetable Soup. This one is a great way to use up leftover vegetables to make healthy comfort food!
Add all ingredients (Except Frozen Vegetables) to a 6-quart slow cooker and stir until well combined.
Cover and cook on high for 3½-4½ hours or low for 6-7 hours or until potatoes are fork-tender.
Thirty minutes before cook time is up. Add frozen vegetables to the slow cooker and cook for 30 more minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
Remove bay leaf and serve.
Notes
Swap out frozen vegetables for fresh ones if you prefer, but keep in mind they may need a longer cooking time. Potatoes take the longest, so be sure they are fork-tender before serving.
Want a more filling soup? Add cooked barley, noodles, or even beans for extra texture and protein.
This soup freezes beautifully. Pour it into freezer-safe bags and store for up to 6 months.
Serve this soup with a grilled cheese or crusty baguette for a cozy meal.
