This recipe is one of those easy recipes that can be made in the morning and left to cook all day in your slow cooker. Add crusty bread and you have a meal ready to go! This can be easily customized by changing the vegetables and meat (sometimes we use beef instead of lamb). I am a big proponent of eating 5 colors of fruits and vegetables each day, and this is a tasty and quick way for my family to get all of them in one meal!

BBQ Lamb Vegetable Soup

1 lb lamb stew meat (coated in flour before browning)

1 T oil

1 onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups chicken broth

15 oz. can fire roasted tomatoes

12 oz. frozen corn

12 oz. frozen peas

1 zucchini diced

2 cups matchstick carrots

2 cups diced potatoes

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

1 cup BBQ sauce (add at the end - we like a sauce that is sweet and spicy)

Toss the lamb stew meat in all purpose flour and brown in oil. Transfer the browned meat to your slow cooker and add all ingredients except for the BBQ sauce. Cook on high for 4-6 hours or until the potatoes are soft and meat is cooked through. Add the BBQ sauce at the end and stir thoroughly. Enjoy!
