1 Leek

1 Onion

2 Carrots

8 Brussel Sprouts

2 or 3 Handfuls of frozen mixed veg

1 Handful of peppers.

4 Potatoes (skin on if liked)

2 handfuls of porridge oats

1 tsp Garlic granules

1 tsp Mixed herbs

2 pts of Chicken or veg stock

2 pinches each of S&P

2 Handfuls of Spinach salad leaves

Wash and Chop all your veg-(grate 1 carrot)
and shred the spinach

Add everything apart from the spinach to the Slow cooker

Cook on high for 4-5 hrs or low for 6-8hrs
I mashed it down slightly but it can be liquidised if preferred

Just before serving add the shredded spinach, stir and serve with crusty bread

Tip- add a swirl of cream before serving or some milk if your watching the calories
Tip- swap the porridge oats for barley( I didn't have any but the oats add creamyness and thickens the soup)
Tip-add any veg you have- I added stir fry veg as I had some left in the bottom of the fridge. Swede is also great to add as is parsnips etc
