Crock Pot Veggie Soup Recipe

  /  
September 24, 2013

I was searching all over the internet a few weeks ago for a good vegetarian alternative to beef stew in the crock pot.  When I was younger, I loved eating the root vegetables from the beef stew, but since I’m a vegetarian, I don’t prefer eating the vegetables when they were soaked in beef broth.

I wasn’t able to find a direct alternative, so I modified a recipe I did find to meet my needs.  I hope you give this a try, because it’s super delicious and the perfect dinner for the fall season.

Crock Pot Veggie Soup

Crock Pot Veggie Soup

Prep time: 40 minutes          Cook time: 4 hours          Yield: 4-6 servings

  • 1 large white onion, chopped
  • 1/2 butternut squash, peeled and chopped
  • 5 Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • 3 large carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 6 cloves of garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 3 cups veggie broth (approx. 1.5 cans)
  • 1 tbsp. sage, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. pepper

Add all ingredients to a slow-cooker, and carefully stir to combine.  Cook on high heat for 4 hours until the veggies are tender.  Add additional salt and pepper if preferred.  Turn off slow cooker.  Serve and enjoy!

I’m not a fan of stews, they just have never been too filling to me. When I was younger, I was always more interested in the corn muffins that were made with it than the beef stew. But the butternut squash makes me want to try this! I’ve never seen anyone put it in a stew, and I think that genius!
