Preparation
Step 1
Heat 2 tbsp. of olive oil in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrots, and chopped garlic seasoned with a little salt and pepper, and saute until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 2
Place sauteed veggies in the crockpot.
Step 3
Now add the remaining ingredients to the crockpot, stir well. Cover and cook on high for 4-6 hours or low for 8-10 hours (preferably on low). IF you are able to, open and stir halfway through the cooking process–but if you aren’t home no worries they will be fine! When cooking time is done, serve and enjoy!
