Crock-pot Pork Roast Soup
Slow Cooker Days
I love making soups out of leftover meat. Soups are a great way to stretch the meat, therefore, stretching the dollar. I had made a pork roast in the crock-pot, and with the leftovers, I thought it would be a great time to make a soup. We served this with a salad and fresh sourdough bread. Yum! The Verdict: The flavor of the soup was great! I am trying to vary my pallet, and I have never been a fan of mushrooms, so that’s the only part that I didn’t enjoy. I will still try to incorporate more mushrooms into our lifestyle (not diet) because I know they are so good for us.
If you want to add more flavor to the soup, sauté the onions and carrots in a skillet for a couple of minutes in two tablespoons of olive, grape seed or avocado oil. This small little step really augments your crock-pot cooking and takes it to a new level.
