Notes
Using a slow cooker saves a lot of time, and is super easy to prepare. However, if you use a liner for your slow cooker - it can make your cleaning up time even easier!
Make more than you need! This soup can be frozen, so if you make a large batch and don't finish it all, you can pop it in the freezer for another day
