Warm Up Soup
Ingredients:
1 pound ground meat (I use turkey, pork, or beef, whatever is on sale)
3 medium onions, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
64 oz beef broth
30 oz diced tomatoes, undrained
4 large carrots, chopped
4 large celery stalks, chopped
2 cups frozen cut green beans
4 small potatoes, chopped (i leave the peeling on, but you could peel it if you have pickier eaters)
1 1/2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
1/2 tablespoon dried sweet basil
1/2 tablespoon dried thyme
Salt/Pepper to taste: optional
Another option is to cook about 2 cups of pasta and add that into the slow cooker about 30 minutes before serving. My kids really like some gluten-free pasta added in, I usually use elbow noodles or penne pasta.
Instructions:
In a large skilled, brown ground meat over medium heat. Add in onions and garlic, cook about 3-5 minutes longer, until onions and garlic are tender and meat is no longer pink and well cooked. Drain off fat. Add meat mixture to 6 quart slow cooker. Add all remaining ingredients and give it a good stirring, cover, set to high and cook for 8-9 hours.
Stir slow cooker contents before serving. Enjoy!
