I love soup, don’t you? I love it any time of the year. This quick and tasty soup utilizes frozen ingredients, so it’s super-fast and so convenient when you’re facing a busy day. Just dump everything into your slow cooker in the morning, and come home to a rich and hearty soup for dinner!

Slow Cooker Veggie & Meatball Soup Recipe

Ingredients:

1 – 16 oz. bag frozen meatballs – cooked

8 oz. frozen vegetable medley*

1 – 14 oz. can Italian-style diced tomatoes – with onion and garlic, undrained

1 – 12 oz. can cream of mushroom soup

1 cup beef broth

1/3 cup water

1 ½ tsp. dried basil – crushed

Directions:

Place the meatballs and mixed vegetables into the crock of your slow cooker.

In a mixing bowl, combine the undrained Italian tomatoes, cream of mushroom soup, broth, water, and basil. Pour over the vegetables and meatballs in the crock.

Cover and cook in your slow cooker on low for 8 hours, or on high for 4 hours.

 

*For best results, look for a frozen vegetable medley that includes broccoli, corn, and red sweet peppers, although any vegetable medley will do. You can even buy individual bags of your favorite veggies and make your own medley!
