Crock Pot Ground Beef Minestrone Soup
My husband and i were lifting the lid about every 15 minutes to taste the broth because it tasted so delicious to us. i slapped this recipe together yesterday for the first time and we will definitely be making this again and again. This experiment came out way better than expected. I hope you enjoy this as much as we did. I love soup loaded with vegetables in a flavorful tomato based broth. I was looking to use up two thawed uncooked hamburger patties along with a bunch of fresh veggies i had in my fridge.
