Minestrone Soup Crock Pot

Both my husband and i love this minestrone soup. It's the only one i'll make! It's a very healthy soup with a wonderful tasting broth. you can leave out the ham if you wish (to make it meatless). it freezes well! I love that i can start this early in the day and forget about it. It's perfect served with some nice crusty bread. Enjoy!!
