CROCKPOT GREEN BEAN AND POTATO SOUP image

This is a soup that we usually had at Christmas. It was pretty much a staple on the menu since I was a kid and I have kept it on the menu for my family all of these years. However, we like it any time the weather is cool and we want something to warm our insides.
