Italian Slow Cooker Vegetables

(47)
  • Number of Servings: 5
Ingredients
1 tsp olive oil1 can Great Northern or cannellini beans, drained and rinsed1 can green beans, drained and rinsed1 can diced tomatoes, or 1.5 cup fresh tomatoes, diced1 medium yellow onion, quartered2 cloves garlic, peeled and quartered1 tbsp oregano, ground2 small zucchini, thickly sliced 1 eggplant, peeled, diced2 stalks of celery1 dask black pepper
Directions
Rub olive oil over Crock-Pot sides and bottom to prevent sticking.
Add remaining ingredients. By all means, add others, if you like. (Many people enjoy green bell peppers in this dish; I find this recipe an excellent way to hide a turnip or two, or to use up that starting-to-wilt spinach.)
Cover and cook on low for 6-9 hours.
Taste (carefully) and season further as desired.
Serve as a side dish or over pasta or rice.

    It was awesome! I made it just the way you have it and added summer squash to it. It was fab! Especially being in college, it was super easy, cheap, tasty, and ready for dinner when I come home! I ate it plain and it would be amazing with Olive Garden's bread sticks!! =) Thank you for sharing! - 3/16/10

    I have and do this often on low it turns out really good. I guess I cut my veggies in larger angles and it turns out great. Sometimes I add red pepper flakes or other veggies too! - 4/28/09

    I have some veggies that I need to use before they spoil and I think this will be a great dish. I don't have eggplant or zucchini so I will use peppers and maybe some cabbage. I'll see once I am in the kitchen.

    Thanks for sharing. - 3/5/09

    the idea is good, but the long cooking makes too soft for me so i do in the fry pan w/o.o. or roast n a hot oven 425 for 20-30 minutes. - 7/19/08

    This is awesome. I make it and have it sprinkled with moo less cheese as a really good supper dish when my carnivore son comes to stay and he always wants a second helping. - 8/19/13

    I made this, but changed it up a bit...turned it into a soup with a box of low sodium chicken broth, added a half can of spinach and some fish, and its fantastic fish soup! Even my kids love it! I did add some tomato paste also and a bit extra water, basil, parsely and italian seasonins...supurb! - 2/15/11

    I know what next week's Italian-themed meal will be! This looks delicious, although I will probably add some more herbs too. - 8/11/09

    To those who are asking about the cooking time - this recipe is for a CROCK POT. It will cook at a very low heat for a long cooking time, and come out as a stew. If you don't have a crock pot, you could probably simmer this on a stove for 40 minutes to an hour. Looks good, will try it. - 3/5/09

    I have a question, why would those veggies need 6--9 HRS of cooking? - 12/16/08

    For raters worried about it becoming too soft, it is supposed to. Like a garden sauce. I do something similar at least once a week and it is so nice to have a warm healthy meal ready when we get home. We call it 'everything pasta'. It makes me bold when buying produce, knowing it won't be wasted - 12/8/08
