Slow cooker vegetable soup

This is the first time I've made soup in the slow cooker, but it was so easy and delicious.        My slow cooker fries, if yours doesn't, use a pan first.  Add a little oil to the pan, then some vegetables, whatever you have. I used sliced celery, sliced leek (washed), sliced carrot, half a bag of soup mix lentils. With these I never bother soaking over night, I rinse them and then boil them in cold water, and then add to the soup. Add stock to cover the vegetables and seasoning to taste. If for children use low salt stock and don't add salt.

Slow cook for around 3-4 hours until vegetables soft. I put this on this morning prior to baby group and was ready in time for lunch
