This is one of our family’s favorite dinners! It’s incredibly flavorful, and really good for you. (If you are doing Trim Healthy Mama, this is a “Fuel Pull” meal! *cheer!*) It’s also really great re-heated later! I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Crock pot or soup pot: This recipe can be made either way. Prep time plus cook time: 1 hour for the soup pot. Crock pot, can cook all day on low, but it’s important to wait to add the fresh vegetables until the last 10 minutes.
