Slow Cooker Vegetable Meatball Soup

One of the best recipes for me.  This soup is a great way for me to get veggies into my family since it is delicious, but it is also so simple to make.  My hubby likes it and the last time I made it even the toddler ate some, which is nothing short of amazing since he usually only likes to eat fruits or things shaped like animals (Goldfish, Teddie grahams, etc).

I start this in the slow cooker before going to work.  When I get home, I make the pasta add it in and dinner is served! :-)

INGREDIENTS:

3 cups beef broth
2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
1 can (14.5 ounce size) stewed tomatoes
12 frozen fully cooked meatballs, thawed

1 cup spiral pasta, cooked and drained

DIRECTIONS:

Combine first 4 ingredients in slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours (these ingredients are already cooked, so it could be a lot less than that, say 4 hours.  I just put 8 because on average that is how long I am gone at work).
Just before serving, stir in pasta; heat through.

I don't find that this needs any extra salt, because the broth and meatballs are already seasoned.

Makes 4 servings.  4 points plus per serving.
