HOW DO YOU MAKE VEGGIE BEEF SOUP?

Step 3: Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours, until beef and vegetables are tender.

RECIPE NOTES AND HELPFUL TIPS:

Look for a fatty marbled batch of stew meat, it will be more tender.

Fresh corn/peas can be used here as well, just add when adding green beans.

For the potatoes I used russet but also frequently make the dish with Yukon or even baby yukon potatoes.

If you wanted a more fall flavored soup you could even swap the potatoes for sweet potatoes.

Serve this with crusty French bread, I promise you won’t regret it.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQs):

1. What cut of beef is best for Veggie Beef Soup?

Because the meat is slow cooked in broth, it doesn’t need to be an expensive cut of beef to be tender in this crockpot vegetable beef soup. However look for a fatty marbled batch of stew meat, it will be more tender.

This is a great option for meal prepping on the weekend when you have more spare time, and then simply reheating throughout the week. Because it has no pasta or rice, it can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 4 or 5 days.

3. Can I make this recipe on the stove?

4. Can I use fresh vegetables instead of frozen?

If you have a lot of extra fresh vegetables on hand that you want to use instead of frozen vegetables you can definitely do so.

However, if you are wanting to use canned vegetables, make sure that you wait until the last hour of cooking before adding them to the crock pot vegetable beef soup.

Because they are are already partially cooked, they would turn out mushy if placed in the slow cooker from the beginning.
