A lot of times when I make instant pot recipes, someone will inevitably ask, “can I make this in the slow cooker?” I usually respond- sure but I don’t have a recipe at the ready. WELL NO MORE! lol Here is the slow cooker recipe version for the instant pot vegetable soup recipe.
Slow cooker vegan vegetable soup is so flavorful and your house will smell amazing.

Remember- when you are cooking anything in the slow cooker- DO NOT LIFT THE LID UNTIL THE RECIPE IS DONE. Yes, that was me yelling at you. Lifting the lid compromises the cooking time and automatically adds 30 min (yes, one little peek).
Check out the recipe below.
