This soup was very good. I added this soup to some penne and topped it with some shredded cheddar cheese to help thicken it a bit. My family loved it.

Fantastic recipe! I used 3 cups of beef broth instead of water and granules. Added in all the veggies left over from the previous week of dinners. Put in about 1/4 teaspoon of celery salt in place of the celery and only used 1/4 tsp of pepper. My kids even ate this and asked for seconds. Great, easy, quick recipe. Thank you!

This stew is delicious. It is a versatile recipe since you can use many different vegetable blends. I used a blend of broccoli, green beans and red bell peppers. This is definitely a keeper recipe.

Good BUT you should know it tastes more like vegetable chili. Not too spicy at all. Might be a better recipe with stew meat. Easy to make and hearty tomato flavor.

So simple and delicious! I used beef broth instead of the bouillon and used half a bag of baby carrots. I also added two serrano peppers and two jalapeno peppers since the other readers claimed it wasn't quite spicy enough. It ended up to be a good amount of spice, (though I would've preferred spicier, but I don't think the in-laws would approve). Everyone loved it! I am only a beginner with crockpots, cooking, and the kitchen, but these great recipes make it so easy to get into it! Thanks for posting!!

This was good soup though I doubt I'll make it again. I used a combination of fresh vegetables (3 small potatoes and a handful of baby carrots) and frozen (peas and corn). I also reduced the pepper to 3/4 tsp. since I was planning on giving some to my 15 month old. I left out the celery out of personal preference.

Really great! I threw all the ingredients (except celery) into the slow cooker. Added some potatoes. Set it on 10 hours, and forgot it! Came back to a great soup! Thanks for the recipe! I will definitely make this again!

I am only giving this recipe 3 stars because, although it is a great base recipe, it is VERY bland as written. I started by adding tabasco and a dash of ground cayenne, but it was still missing something, so I added cumin. I ended up adding more tabasco, and cayenne and taco seasoning. The result was tasty, but I wish I had added it from the beginning.

Used 1 lb turkey breast cut into 1/4 inch cubes intsead of ground beef. Also used 2 cups low sodium beef broth and 1 cup water instead of bouillon granules. Didn't have 8 hours to cook on low, so cooked on high 1.5 hours, low for about 4 hours. Soooo good!! Vegetables stayed suprisingly firm, not at all mushy.
