A steaming bowl of soup is so perfect for when the days start to turn chilly, and this one, with a ground beef base and lots of vegetables, is a winner! On top of that, you can easily throw the ingredients in the crock pot in the morning or afternoon, and it’s ready for dinner when you are.
Serve it alone, or with a hunk of crusty bread, cornbread or light rolls, and you have a wonderful meal.
Here is what you need to make this hearty soup:
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef, cooked
- 1 Tablespoon minced onion
- One 14.5 ounce can of green beans, drained
- One 14.5 ounce can of sliced carrots, drained
- One 28 ounce can Italian stewed chopped tomatoes
- Three 14 ounce cans of beef broth or (5-6 beef bouillon cubes and 5-6 cups of water)
- 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
- 3/4 cup instant rice
After browning and draining your ground beef, add it to the crock pot with all the other ingredients.
Cook on low for 4-6 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, or till bubbly and hot.
It’s mild and hearty, and perfect for a crisp fall evening or a cold winter night!

It is good, and I love the fact that it uses ground beef which I always seem to have in my freezer! 🙂

I hate instant rice. Can I use another type of rice and would it be the same 3/4 cup?

Although I haven’t tried it, I think it would turn out just fine.
