A large crock pot of vegan vegetable soup is one of my favorite healthy comfort foods.
Especially on a cold winter day — but healthy, hearty vegan vegetable soups are satisfying in any season.
And there are so many ways to make it!
The sky is limit!
It simply depends on what vegetables you choose to include.
This healthy, hearty slow-cooker vegan vegetable soup recipe is a delectable blend of chopped onion, carrots, celery,
green beans, corn, potatoes, red pepper, Italian seasoning, tomato purée, vegetable broth and seasonings —
with fresh spinach and tangy fresh lime juice stirred in at the end.
