Crockpot Vegetable Farrow Soup/Stew

Tomato Paste 4-6 oz

Crushed tomatoes 16-24 oz

Raw vegetables (carrots, onion, garlic, sweet pepper, celery, mushrooms, greens, anything else you like or have on hand). I use lots of mushrooms to give the stew a meaty consistency.

Farrow, dry, unprocessed 1 cup (if you don’t have farrow, you can use rice or another whole grain)

3-5 cups water (plus more as needed to achieve desired consistency)

Seasonings of choice (salt, pepper, vinegar, italian seasoning mix, paprika, dill, celery seed - choose what you like)

Put everything in a crockpot and cook on high power for 4 hours. Add water as needed to achieve the desired consistency. Depending on the size of the crockpot you will use less or more tomato paste/crushed tomatoes. This recipe can be sized down according to size of the crockpot.
