Time 1h45m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 lb stewing beef
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
1 1/4 ounces onion soup mix

1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
4 cups water
1 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon marjoram

RICH AND HEARTY CROCK POT VEGETABLE BEEF SOUP



Rich and Hearty Crock Pot Vegetable Beef Soup image

This soup recipe was nabbed from another recipe site, and then modifed by me. It makes a lovely, rich and fulfilling soup, one of my all time favorite crockpot dishes! The beauty of it is it makes a delightfully satisfying vegetable soup, so feel free to leave out the beef, if you prefer. I added the cayenne pepper and hot sauce, which gives it a nice kick (you can also use Spicy V8 Juice instead of the tomatoe juice, and then omit the cayenne pepper and hot sauce).

  • Use a Variety of Vegetables: Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables in your soup. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, green beans, and corn.
