Creamy Crockpot Tomato Soup

Continuing our stuck inside because of freezing temperatures party Kev and I really wanted soup! This is a great soup to make for a few reason:
1. You probably have most of the ingredients already.
2. It’s a crockpot meal (speaks for itself )
3. It’s pretty much all veggies!
