Comforting recipes like our Slow-Cooker Spiced Lentil Soup with Vegetables and our Slow-Cooker Kale & White Bean Stew are nourishing options that celebrate convenience, flavor and health. This chicken potato soup is perfect for ushering in fall: It's hearty enough for the beginning of soup season, yet brothy and veggie-packed so it doesn't feel too heavy. This recipe is ideal for a weekend, when you can check on the slow cooker after just a few hours.
