“My husband and I make our own sauerkraut and grow many of the vegetables in this easy slow cooker soup,” relates Yvonne Kett of Appleton, Wisconsin. “It cooks all day and smells delicious when we come home from work. I usually assemble this the night before and put it in the fridge. Then I take it out and pop it in the slow cooker just before I leave for work in the morning.”
