Slow-Cooker Spinach Bean Soup image

This navy bean soup is heartwarming comfort food at its best. It's my signature soup that I make for my family and friends. The bright red and green of the peppers and spinach give it a suitably seasonal look. -Barbara Shay, Pasadena, California

This soup is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I often add whatever I have on hand, and it always turns out great.

I wasn't a fan of this soup. The texture was a little weird and the flavor was just okay.

This soup was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.
