Mediteranean Fish Soup (slow cooker)

Mediteranean Fish Soup

Orange juice, white wine, bay leaves, and fennel give this shrimp and cod soup its distinctive flavor. Mushrooms, onion, black olives and green bell pepper are simmered slowly (4 - 4 1/2 hours) in a chicken-tomato stock, with the cod and shrimp added next.
