I completely forgot how useful the crock-pot was until recently. Tucked away in my kitchen closet, my crock-pot usually gets used for the Superbowl to hold chili dip and that’s about it. We were out searching for a new home this weekend and I made this soup to come home to. It was so easy, healthy and delicious. To make a quick weeknight meal, try it over quinoa instead of brown rice, which cooks in just 15 minutes.

  • 1/8 cup olive oil

  • 4 celery stalks, chopped
  • 3 red potatoes chopped

Instructions

      Will definitely have to try this. Would substitute sweet potatoes though. Lots of great recipes, I’m looking for ones that I can make on the weekend and portion out and keep for work lunches throughout the week. Thanks!
