If frozen, thaw the bags in the refrigerator overnight. Pour the contents into a slow cooker. Stir in the water. Cook, covered, on low for 4 to 6 hours, or until the vegetables are tender.

In a large bowl, stir together all the ingredients except the water. Transfer the mixture equally between two 1-gallon resealable plastic freezer bags. Lay the bags flat in the freezer.
Cooking Tip: Don't have celery salt? No problem. Here are a couple substitutions. Using a mortar and pestle or spice grinder, grind enough celery seeds to make 1/2 teapoon ground celery. In a small bowl, stir together the ground celery with 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt. You can also use 1 teaspoon dill salt in place of 1 teaspoon celery salt.
