Slow Cooker Chicken Soup

Don't let the title fool you, this soup is not boring at all, it is DELICIOUS!!!  My parents used to make this when I was growing up, so often that it broke our slow cooker.  I haven't had in 10+ years but think about it ALL the time!  Especially now, when I really need simple/low maintenance recipes to cook.  

My slow cooker is 6.5 quart so I put two cornish hens in there.  If yours is smaller then just get one.

2-3 green onion chopped small

small piece of whole ginger

2 -3 stalks of celery (very important, don't skip.  I just buy a container of the pre-chopped ones from publix)

1-2 cans of WHOLE potato (depending on the size of the can)

1-2 cans of WHOLE tomato

1-2 cornish hens, thawed

dried parsley

salt and pepper to taste

Chop off only the fatty part of the hen near the butt.  No need to skin the chicken.  Put everything into the slow cooker and fill it with water, enough to cover everythings.  I keep mine on low for 10-12 hours.  Adjust for salt before time is up.  When it's time to serve just break up the chicken in the slow cooker with two forks, everything falls apart!
