Why yes – I have jumped on the slow cooker bandwagon!! I’ve probably posted more slow cooker recipes in the last year than I did in the whole 4 years before. (Part in thanks to the chance that I have had to develop all of these recipes using Progresso’s Recipe Starters!) I have found that my favorite thing in the slow cooker will always be soup. It’s easy, it’s satisfying, and we are definitely going into soup season!!
This beef and potato soup was a hearty and filling dinner for us. And it’s always a plus when it comes together in just minutes!! And I don’t know about you, but I can use a lot more of that these days!
Keep warm on a cold day with this beef soup that is made in the slow cooker.
Ingredients
- 2 lb. round roast, cut into cubes
- 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained
- 2 small potatoes, peeled and diced
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 can (18 oz) Progresso™ Recipe Starters™ creamy roasted garlic with chicken stock cooking sauce
- 1 cup water
- 1 beef bouillon cube
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, until the beef is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
- Serve garnished with fresh basil, if desired.

A wonderfully comforting soup! Yummy.

@Rosa, thanks – perfect for a cold night!
I have to admit that I’m not a fan of soup but those rolls in the background?! When is that recipe coming?
@Erin @ Texanerin Baking, haha – I actually found the recipe from another blog. You can see them here – http://www.thecountrycook.net/2012/02/butter-dip-biscuits.html. They were delicious and easy. Not an everyday thing, since they have a ton of butter, but they were great!!
@Deborah, I love how how there’s butter floating on the top.
They’re not that bad, though! Definitely doable. Thanks for the reply!
I definitely am in need of quick, easy, and delicious recipes these days, and this one definitely fits the bill! Another great slow cooker recipe
@Colleen @ What’s Baking in the Barbershop?!, this one definitely fits the bill! And it’s perfect for the cooling weather!
I need to dust off the slow cooker!
@Maria, yes you do! I’ve been going crazy with mine lately!

@carrian, we have GOT to get you a new one!!!
I really need to pull out my slow cooker more often. This is wonderful comfort food!
@Cookin’ Canuck, I didn’t used to be a huge slow cooker fan, but it’s growing on me more and more all the time!
I love using my slow cooker, especially this time of year! This soup looks fabulous!
@Jennifer @ Mother Thyme, my slow cooker has been out so much lately – and I can guess that it’s going to be out a lot more still!
I can use a whole lot more easy dinners right now too! And I’m all for your slow cooker recipes. I’m always in need of good ones.
@kristy, doesn’t seem like this is when things start to get crazy and we all just need easy? This one is definitely easy!!
I am “souper” excited about soup season too! (Haha! I couldn’t help myself!)
@Heather of Kitchen Concoctions, love that – I’m going to have to use it myself!
I love my slow cookers (yes, I have multiples, lol) so much. These just make life so much more fun. I put mine on and go to the barn.
Love this recipe. Such a great comfort recipe.
@Kim Bee, I have 2 of them! Different sizes for different recipes!!
I love those recipe starters…Progresso sent me some and they are fab. They are going tp be my staple during harvest this next month. We have to eat while making wone.
I’m so ready to bust out my slow cooker! This looks great!
@Kristy (Sweet Treats & More), yes – it’s definitely time to pull it out!!
I love me a good hearty soup!! This sounds wonderful.
This bandwagon keeps tempting me! My slow cooker is collecting dust.
@Jen @ Savory Simple, haha – I know! I finally gave it, and have been cooking like crazy in mine lately!
You’re making me think I need to take my slow cooker back from my old roommate, whom I gifted it to! Looks great.
@Joanne, haha – maybe your old roommate will let you borrow it from time to time?
I love soup in the slow cooker! This looks like perfect comfort food.
@Anna @ hiddenponies, it is super comforting – especially on a cold night!!

This soup will be perfect as the days start to cool off!
YUM! i love slow cooking, especially when the weather gets cold, can’t wait to try this!
The slow cooker makes cooking so easy. I’m totally on the band wagon!
Anything with roasted garlic is a favorite of mine! I guess I need to whip out my slow cooker sometime soon…
