Really good. I cooked it on the stove top because I didn't get the recipe ready in the morning.

I used this recipe as a basic starter. I added whole kernel corn, green beans, and stewed tomatoes. It's really delicious...

Ok...a 4-ish before a few additions. Certainly has potential to be 5! I made a few small changes in the beginning...I didn't have large potatoes, I had small yukon golds, so I just added enough to look like 2 large (lol)...and I cubed them. I diced the onions instead of slicing them because it's easier to get my kids to eat them that way. I also used corn instead of peas, beef broth instead of water, added a can of diced tomatoes, and lots of garlic. I cooked it in the crock on low for about 8 hours. Tasted it. It was pretty bland. I added more beef bouillion granules, more fresh ground pepper, about 1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning, and a couple small pinches of cayenne. Oh, and more garlic. Put the crockpot on warm and let it "stew" until my bread was finished (about 40 minutes). The end result was AWESOME! My kids and hubby were eating like uncivilized heathens! I had to remind the girls a couple of times to use their table manners. It was that good! I'm definitely adding the recipe with changes to my rotation! Thanks!

Yummy! I didn't have tomato paste/soup, so I used left-over spagetti sauce. WOW! It was good. I used frozen corn instead of peas, added some onion powder and garlic powder, a bit of celery salt...gonna have this again and again.

Good old-fashioned, comfort food. Great for a cold day. We like it with homemade beer bread.

I made this the other day when not feeling so well and I wanted a recipe that I could use what I had on hand. I substituted frozen green beans for peas and carrots. Also I added more seasonings and last 10 minutes I threw in a cup of shredded white american cheese, I think any shredded cheese -- monterey, colby, swiss, would do -- it really made a difference. Also 4 days later tasted even better. Next time I'm eliminating the potatoes and serving it over mashed potatoes or rice.

I'm giving this recipe 5 stars b/c after making some changes, it turned out really good. Here's what I did: -used a bag of frozen veggies instead of canned -added 1 can stewed tomatoes -added 1 can tomatoe paste -1 cup water with beef bouillion cub dissolved -added fresh red potatoes and okra(one of my favorite veggies not included in frozen pkg.) -salt/pepper to taste -splash of worcester shire sauce to pot before cooking all -used ground turkey rather than beef and cooked with splash of worcestershire sauce/drained -chopped one large vidalia onion All of this is in addition to what the recipe called for(except for salt/pepper and potatoes). I also try to go easy on salting b/c its easy to over-salt and you can always add salt to each serving. Mix it all up in a crock pot and cook on low at least 7 hours. I've had three bowls this evening already! This is a great base recipe that you can add/subtract to according to what suits you.

Very good. Definitely add the extra can of beef broth or it is more like stew. I also added some chopped cabbage and onions instead of the celery. The worsteshire and a little hot sauce made it perfect. My husband loved it. HINT: If you boil the potatoes in broth while the meat is browning it cooks much faster in the slow cooker.

This was good but nothing special. I used canned corn and beans instead of peas because that's what I had. I mixed my tomato soup with milk and then used beef broth instead of water. Added some basil, oregano, and garlic powder but it was still fairly bland. My husband put hot sauce in his and liked it that way.

This soup is really good but adjustments are needed. We added beef base, diced tomatoes, and a few green beans. I omitted the tomato soup since I was after a beef based soup.

Fantastic basic soup recipe. After the first try we went with a few modifications: used frozen vegetables instead of canned; used a can of crushed tomatoes instead of tomato soup; added a teaspoon of sugar to counteract the acidity of the crushed tomatoes. We also added a few dried spices to "liven it up"(personal choice): garlic, italian seasoning, and crushed red pepper flakes.

I didnt make this recipe to a T, but based on my modifications, it is a 5 star recipe and definately a keeper in my recipe box. I added any veggies I had in my garden... green beans, zuchinni, peas. I also added a can of corn and a can of tomatoes. I also added a can of cream of celery soup and a dash or two of worsteshire sauce. Then to spice it up I added basil, oregano and garlic. The soup was delicious!

i liked this recipe because although it was simple, it left lots of room for individual add-ins/outs making it very easy to personalize to your family's tastes, i found the review by Cindy Wait very rude, it told you nothing about why you did not like the recipe or what could make it better, it was very immature, Cindy Wait grow up!

My family really liked this soup. I don't like cooked peas so I left it out. I used canned diced tomatoes instead of tomato soup. I added 2 T. chicken bullion and 1 T. soy sauce. It tastes even better the 2nd day. Thanks for the recipe.
