How To Make fall vegetable soup

Step 1

Heat the oil in an extra large pot. Add the onions and cook until opaque.

Add leeks and cook for about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3

Add the turnip, rutabaga, celery, carrots, then cook, stirring for about 5 more minutes.
Step 4

Stir in the split peas, tomatoes, vegetable stock, and parsley.
Step 5

Bring to a boil. Once the soup is boiling, turn it off, and carefully pour it into a large slow cooker. Add the ham shank.
Step 6

Cook on low for 6-9 hours until the veggies are tender.

Remove the ham shank from the cooker and let it cool a bit. Pull the meat off carefully and return it to the cooker...Be careful because this stays hot a long time!
