Ingredients
  • 2 15oz of Rinsed Northern White Beans
  • 1 large potato diced small
  • 6 large carrots diced small
  • 3 stalks of celery dice small
  • 1 bunch of scallions sliced thin (green and white)
  • 1 lb browned Veggie Sausage
  • 4 closed of garlic microplaned with 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 40 ounces of Veggie Stock
  • 12 ounces of baby spinach
  • 1-2 veggie bouillon cubes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 large by leaf
  • 2 tablespoons of prepared pesto
  • 1 Parmesan rind or small piece
Instructions
  1. Wash and clean your veggies
  2. Chop your veggies (you can do this ahead of time)
  3. Slice and brown your Sausageless Sausage in a tablespoon or two of olive oil, just to get some color
  4. Put all of the ingredients into the slow cooker except the Spinach and the Bouillon Cube.
  5. Pour your broth on top and stir well
  6. Place the cover on and allow to cook on high for 5-6 hours or low for 8-10 hours
  7. Right before serving add your baby spinach and bouillon cube and stir till everything is combined
  8. Allow to cook for 15-30 minutes more and then you are ready to serve!
  9. I just wanted to add that we like our broth a little bit thicker so at the end when we add the spinach and bouillon cube I add 2 tablespoons of flour with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and stir that through...it thickens it just a little bit and I wanted to let you know that that was an option.
  10. Serve in a crock or soup bowl, add your toppings and ENJOY!
