Default Manischewitz Soup Mixes

Some of you may be familiar with the Manischewitz dried soup mixes
that are packaged in cellophane tubes. I am wondering if anyone has
prepared them in a crock pot.

The directions say to simmer the contents of the large bag (veggies,
etc.) in seven cups of water for two hours, adding the contents of the
small bag (spices, etc.) during the last ten minutes.

Manischewitz has no specific suggestions for slow-cooking, except to
say that the amount of water be reduced. I found one recipe which
mentioned putting both packets into the pot at the beginning, but did
not mention the amount of liquid or the time and temperature.

Any other suggestions?

At Amazon's sale price, the mixes came out to be under a dollar each.

Ingredients, for those who are interested:

Green peas
Barley
Yellow peas
Lima beans
Enrighed egg noodles
Salt
Mushrooms
Onions
Sugar
Carrots
Vegetable shortening
Corn starch
Celery
Tomatoes
Bell peppers
Turmeric
Spinach
Sodium bisulfite (preservative).
