Tips
TIPS/VARIATIONS:
- I heat up and add in leftover veggies after the puréeing step as well for some chunks and added flavor!!! I normally add peas, corn and/or peppers. I have even added in proteins such as quinoa, kamut, tofu or edamame. I basically use this as a base and then change it up each day for lunch with different add-ins.
- You can use any vegetables in place of the carrots, celery and cauliflower like zucchini, broccoli, squash, mushrooms or peppers.
- Other variation: Add a can of diced tomatoes or diced tomatoes with chiles for a kick after the puréeing step
- For a bit more flavor with a bit of saltiness, sprinkle each bowl before serving with grated parmesan cheese instead of seasoning with salt.
Directions
1. Spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Put all ingredients but yogurt into the crockpot and stir.
3. Put slow cooker on low for 8 hours.
4. Once done and all ingredients are tender purée the soup with an immersion blender or add to a blender or food processor in batches until all soup is pureed. If not using an immersion blender return pureed soup to the slow cooker. NOTE: You can also choose to leave some of the ingredients un-pureed if you would like some chunks of veggies too.
5. Stir in the greek yogurt. Mix well, season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste and serve.
