Instead of the ground beef, I used leftover pot roast from Sunday (2 days ago). I'm not a big fan of ground beef in soups. (But, I better get used to it -- there are a lot of recipes in this book that call for it, dangit.) No beef broth...it's a tomato-based soup. I just tried some...I couldn't taste it because I burnt the dickens out of my tongue. (I should know better...) Dunno -- it may be good. Had to plan ahead, because it crock pots for 8 hours. I don't usually plan ahead more than 4 hours. I was going to make this one yesterday, but, again, I FORGOT TO READ THE ENTIRE RECIPE! I'm making buttermilk biscuits with it, so at least everyone will like that.
So now I have to stock up on crackers to go with my soups. The family was going all different directions tonight, and they took biscuits because soup on the go doesn't work. So, I think this soup is good. The V-8 juice sort gave it a zip. It'd be great with Ritz Crackers. It's not really an "eat-with-a-biscuit" soup. Steve (my husband) really liked it. To sum up...like a zesty vegetable soup...yeah, that's it.
