Let the aroma of this savory soup waft through your home while you get ready for the holidays. I only have to slice some bread and prepare a salad to have dinner ready, writes Paula Zsiray of Logan Utah. For a thicker soup, mash half of the garbanzo beans before adding them to the slow cooker.
Ingredients:
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) chicken or vegetable broth
1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
1 can (16 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (15 ounces) garbanzo beans or chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) beef broth
2 cups frozen cubed hash brown potatoes, thawed
1 tablespoon dried minced onion
1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
2 cups frozen peas and carrots, thawed
Directions:
1. In a 5-qt. slow cooker, combine the first 13 ingredients. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours. Stir in the spinach, peas and carrots; heat thorough. Yield: 12 servings (about 3 quarts).
