Directions

  1. 1

  2. 2

Drain off fat, and stir stewed tomatoes into the beef mixture. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and cook, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes are broken up into small pieces.

    Stir potatoes, corn, green beans, and peas into soup in slow cooker, and add beef mixture. Stir everything together, cover, and set slow cooker on High. Cook for 4 hours.
