1 cup onion,chopped OR bell pepper or summer squash, diced, or combo
1/3 cup (1 bunch) green onions, sliced
1 cup sliced mushrooms
5 cups vegetable, onion or other broth or tomato juice mix
2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Combine all ingredients except basil and green onions in the crock pot and stir well. Cover and cook on low for about 8 hours (5–6 hours if using very fine bulgur), then stir in the basil and green onions for the last half hour.

If you saute the vegetables, reduce the cooking time to 6 hours and reduce the liquid about 1/2 cup.
