When it comes to slow-cooking, meat usually gets to have all the fun. But there are tons of vegetarian slow-cooker soup recipes that are just as delicious, impressive and easy to make. Whether you’re a full-blown vegetarian or you’re just looking to eat a little less meat, knowing you can make delicious, easy soups and stews in the slow cooker without a lick of chicken, beef, pork or turkey is a seriously great feeling.
Plus, because vegetables and grains don’t take as long as animal proteins to cook, most meatless slow-cooker soup recipes are a little less slow than their meat-filled counterparts.
