Crockpot Veggie Soup

I love to cook  –  almost as much as I love to play golf.  I also love to eat healthy,  even on days I’m at the range or on the course.  One of the ways I’m able to golf the day away and have a healthy,  home cooked meal is by utilizing my crockpot.

Crockpot meals are quick and easy.  One of my favorites is a simple vegetable soup.  It takes 20 minutes of prep before I walk out the door  –  and by the time I come home  –  I have a savory,  ready to eat meal.

Check out my recipe!

INGREDIENTS:

3 medium to large potatoes

1 bunch celery

5 large carrots
