I feel like I’ve struck jackpot with my latest slow cooker recipe. It’s vegan and vegetarian-friendly, it’s healthy (only veggies here) and thus perfect for my continuing diet success and it’s a soup, one of my favorite slow cooker meals to make. Plus, this soup tasted SO good.
Seriously, I’ve hit the jackpot with this chunky pink lentil and bean soup.
And it was all so simple!
The only step in this preparation is throwing the ingredients in the crockpot, mixing them up and setting it to cook overnight. This is why I love soups.
