Wheat Berry Minestrone (slow cooker)




This started as a Weight Watcher's recipe, but I made some changes, so here's my adjusted version. The Crock Pot photo is mine, the finished photo is theirs.


Wheat Berry Minestrone


Place all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cook on low for 8 hours.


4 cups vegetable broth (4 cups water + veg bouillion)

1 28oz can diced tomatoes, with juice

1 can kidney beans

1 small red onion, diced

1 carrot, sliced thinly

2 cups fresh green beans, trimmed and cut

1 cup diced bell pepper (I used red, orange and yellow mini peppers I had in the freezer)

1 1/2 cups uncooked wheat berries (hard white winter wheat)

1/4 tsp sage

1/4 tsp rosemary

1/2 tsp oregano

1/2 tsp thyme

1 tsp salt

3/4 tsp pepper


Makes 8 - 12 servings. So yummy and very filling.
