Slow Cooking Thursday

Hamburger Soup

1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
2 large potatoes, sliced (I cut them into small/med. cubes)
2 stalks celery, sliced
salt and pepper to taste
2 onions, thinly sliced
1 can peas
3 small carrots, sliced
1 can condensed tomato soup
1 1/4 cups water

Place ground beef in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble, and set aside.

Place the potatoes in a layer to cover the bottom of the slow cooker. Sprinkle the celery over the potatoes, and cover with a layer of ground beef. Season each layer with salt and pepper. Throw in the carrots, onions and peas. Mix together the tomato soup and water, and pour over the top. Cover, and set to low for 6 to 8 hours.

The sky is the limit with this soup. I've added other types of veggies as well, corn, summer squash, lima beans. The list could go on and on. Enjoy!
