Potatoes have always been a staple in my house but some dishes can take a long time to prepare.  This recipe uses the slow cooker to cook the soup while you are away.  Simply place all the ingredients in the slow cooker, set the cook time, and leave the soup to prepare itself.

Serve hot with homestyle bread.

8 baking potatoes cut into quarters

1 sliced red onion
