Best Ever Vegetable Beef Soup

Comfort food is what I always want in the winter.  Something that will make me feel good all over, and Vegetable Beef Soup is one of those dishes.  When you come in out of the cold, nothing smells better than a big pot of soup. My recipe for the Best Ever Vegetable Beef Soup is one that cooks itself and feeds the whole family.

Sometimes I just crave some good old-fashioned country cooking and a hearty stick-to-your-ribs meal.  I’m a cook who likes things to be easy, so I don’t want to be watching a pot on the stove all day.  That’s why I love my crock pot so much.  I can play all day and come home to a big pot of Vegetable Beef Soup.  Comfort food at it’s best.

I make mine really simple – – –

I don’t measure, I just fill up the pot

Potatoes Diced in medium chunks
Onion Diced in medium chunks
Baby carrots – however many you want
Celery – 2 large stalks chopped
Big package of stew meat – ( I want lots of leftovers – So good the second day )
Pepper to taste
Garlic salt to taste
Bay leaf
Fill the pot with 1/2 water and 1/2 beef broth ( You can use the beef crystals too and all water.)
Sometimes I add a pkg. of dried Onion Soup Mix.

Turn on high to start and when it bubbles, turn down to low and let it cook all day.  SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO   GOOOOOOOOOOD.  Best Ever Vegetable Beef Soup.

Just add a salad and a hot biscuit and you are ready to enjoy.  Good for you and low calorie too.
