Ingredients
Scale
Beef and Broth
- 1 pot roast (about 2 pounds)
- 1 (32 oz) container beef broth (divided)
- 2 (10.75 oz) cans tomato soup
- 1 can filled with water (approx. 10.75 oz)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Vegetables
- 2 russet potatoes, chopped
- 1 bag frozen seasoning blend (or just chopped onions)
- 1 bag frozen peas
- 1 bag frozen green beans
- 1 bag frozen corn
- 4 large carrots, chopped
- 1 tablespoon oil (for sautéing)
Instructions
- Season and slow cook the roast: Season the pot roast generously with salt and pepper. Place it in your slow cooker and add half a can of beef broth. Cook on LOW for about 10 hours until the meat is tender enough to shred easily with two forks.
- Sauté vegetables: In a very large pot on the stovetop, heat 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the chopped carrots and the frozen seasoning blend (or chopped onions) and sauté until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add remaining ingredients: To the sautéed vegetables, add the shredded beef, chopped potatoes, frozen peas, green beans, corn, remaining beef broth, tomato soup, water from the canned tomato soup, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Simmer the soup: Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and let it cook gently for about 1 hour, allowing the flavors to meld and the potatoes to cook through.
- Adjust liquid as needed: During cooking, add additional water as desired to achieve your preferred soup consistency. Stir occasionally and check seasoning before serving.
Notes
- Using a slow cooker for the roast ensures tender, flavorful meat without much hands-on time.
- Frozen vegetables make this recipe convenient year-round.
- You can substitute fresh vegetables if preferred, adjusting cooking times accordingly.
- Adjust salt and pepper towards the end to avoid over-seasoning.
- This soup stores well and tastes even better the next day.
