This recipe is delicious, nutritious and versatile. It's easy to vary the amounts and types of vegetables you use. I added minced garlic to the ground beef while it browned. I cooked the soup in the crockpot all day on low and it was a treat to come home and have it ready to eat. I'll be making this often and it will probably be a little bit different each time. Thanks!
