Easy Vegetable Soup
For this recipe, I used what vegetables I had on hand. Some were fresh and others were from a can. Thermal cooking saves money by using heat stored in the food to cook. Great for camping or when you don’t want to leave the slow cooker plugged in all day while everyone is at work or school. I’ve used this method while camping and the recipes are endless! Pick your favorite recipe and use the thermal method to cook it. The only catch is there must be liquid and the container needs to be at least 3/4 full. Keeping the vessel full allows the heat to be retained long enough to cook the food properly.
Ingredients
Method
- Saute the onions in the bacon fat (or olive oil) until tender and almost starting to brown. I saute mine in the pot that goes into the thermal cooker.
- Add all the other ingredients and bring them back to a boil.
- Reduce the heat a little and simmer for 15 – 20 minutes. Make sure the pot is boiling and the bubbles can’t be stirred down. The vegetables need to be heated all the way through.
- Remove from heat. Place the lid on the thermal cooker pot and place it into the thermal cooker.
- Leave the food in the cooker for 4-5 hours. Do not check the food since that will release the heat. Keeping the heat in the pot is needed for thermal cooking.
- After 4-5 hours the soup will be ready. Carefully remove the cooking pot from the cooker and enjoy!
