Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 medium sweet potato, peeled and chopped
- 3 large carrots, peeled and sliced
- 1 celery stalk, diced
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 30 ounces navy beans (or black beans), drained and rinsed
- 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
Optional Additions
- Diced tomatoes, to taste
- Baby spinach, handful
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
- Salt, to season
- Black pepper, to season
- Allspice, to taste
- Paprika, to taste
- Bay leaf, 1
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Peel and chop the sweet potato, carrots, celery, onion, and garlic into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking and blend of flavors.
- Combine in Slow Cooker: Add the sweet potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, beans, and seasonings (salt, black pepper, allspice, paprika, and bay leaf) into the slow cooker. Pour the low-sodium vegetable broth over the vegetables until they are fully covered.
- Cook: Cover the slow cooker and set it to low heat. Let the soup cook for 6 to 8 hours, allowing the vegetables to become tender and the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Add Spinach: Approximately 5 minutes before serving, stir in the baby spinach to wilt it slightly into the hot soup.
- Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and, if desired, drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil for added richness and flavor.
Notes
- You can substitute navy beans with black beans without changing the cooking time.
- Adding diced tomatoes adds a tangy note and extra nutrients.
- Adjust seasoning according to taste, especially salt and pepper.
- For a thicker texture, pureeing a portion of the soup before adding spinach can create a creamier consistency.
- Use low-sodium broth to control salt content.
