This is one of our family's favorite recipes. I can't believe I haven't posted it before. Justin found this recipe on the Recipe Zaar website, but we've made just a few changes so I've typed it up the way we do it. A word of warning: this makes a lot of soup. We can easily feed two families with just one crockpot full.
3/4 lb. ground beef
1 med. onion chopped
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced carrots
3-4 stalks of celery thinly sliced
2 cans Italian style diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 can great northern beans, drained and rinsed
32 ounces beef broth
3 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. black pepper
5 tsp. dried parsley
1 tsp. Tabasco sauce (optional- I don't ever use it, but Justin always adds a little to his own bowl)
1 20 oz. jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce
1 cup small shell or other small pasta noodles
Brown the beef in a skillet. Drain fat from beef then add all ingredients except pasta to a large crockpot. Cool on low 7-8 hours or high 4-5 hours. During the last 30 min. on high or last hour on low add pasta.
