This nicely seasoned soup tastes so good. It's convenient, too, since it simmers all day in the slow cooker. —Jean Hutzell of Dubuque, Iowa

I also used cubed sirloin steak coated with flour and cooked prior to putting it in the mix instead of the ground beef.

I changed the recipe to use 2 beef bouillon cubes dissolved in 2 cups water and one 14.5 oz. can beef broth in exchange for the 3 cups water. I also added 3/4 of a 16 oz bag frozen vegetables about half way through the cooking process. My sister tried it and said it was good enough to sell by the bowl.

I was looking for something a little different for our birthday gathering and this delivered. It was great and the WHOLE family loved it ( all 23 of them). Have made it several times now and given out many recipies for it.

Both my wife and I enjoyed this very much. With the Italian tomatoes and the other spices, it was very flavorful. Reading the other review, I made sure to keep the potato cubes small. Also, I put the crock pot on the high setting the last 90 minutes. The potatoes were fine. I will make again.

I used red potatoes for this. They were still crunchy after hours. There also wasn't much taste, so I added A-1 sauce, ketchup and more salt...anything to give it some taste. I scooped out the potatoes and it tasted fine.
