This is a great tasting, hearty soup. I also used the crockpot method as written with the following changes. I added 3 small stalks of celery, 3/4 cup Red Wine, 1 small red onion, 1 small vidalia onion, and 3/4 lb of common mushrooms. This is probably why my soup was more like a hearty stew. I also used Herbs de Provence instead of Itialian seasoning. Thanks for posting this wonderful recipe. I will make this again.
