Notes
Salt measurements can vary depending on the type you are using. Table salt will be closer to 2 tsp while a coarser salt may need 1 Tbsp. Always add salt to taste.
Storing Leftovers in the Freezer/Fridge: Cool completely and then store in airtight containers for 5 days in the fridge or up to 6 months in the freezer. Thaw overnight in the fridge or cook from frozen on the stoptop. Heat until warmed through.
Slow Cooker Directions: Sautee the veggies in a skillet first then add the hearty veggies, tomatoes, and broth ingredients to the slow cooker and cook on low for 4-5 hours. 20 minutes before it's finished, add the corn, sweet peas, green onion, and parsley to the slow cooker and stir to combine.
