Salmon Sweet Potato Soup

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Cook: 5-1/2 hours YIELD: 8 servings (3 quarts).
I created this recipe as a healthier alternative to whitefish chowder, which is a favorite in the area where I grew up. The salmon and sweet potatoes boost the nutrition and the slow cooker makes it more convenient. It's especially comforting on a cold fall or winter day! —Matthew Hass, Franklin, Wisconsin
