Slowcooker Pork Stew/Soup

This is a quick and easy meal to prep. Once assembled it cooks on its own while you are away at work or overnite while you're sleeping. The recipe makes 2 large or 4 smaller portions.

Ingredients:
2 pork chops cubed
1 onion chopped or sliced
2 celery stalks chopped 
2 potatoes cut into medium chunks
2 - garlic cloves, peeled, and crushed or finely chopped
1 bay leaf
Water to cover
Depending on your slowcooker, choose low, med or high. Mine has only 2 settings so I cooked mine on high over nite.
Add some cabbage roughly chopped near the end of cooking time (I actually put mine in at the beginning and it was ok, but soggy.
When everything was cooked I found the taste to be too bland so I added a can of tomato soup and a tablespoon of beef boullion.
