Recipe Notes
Low-Carb Tip: For an ultra-low-carb version, omit the carrot, though its minimal carbs add a touch of sweetness and texture.
Broth Swap: Beef broth can be used instead of chicken broth for a richer flavor.
Extra Flavor Boost: Sauté the onion and garlic before adding them to the slow cooker for a more robust taste.
