FAQs & Tips

What type of vegetables should you use?

 I like to keep it simple so I use a bag of mixed frozen vegetables. This includes carrot, peas, green beans, and corn. 

What if you don’t have frozen vegetables?

Use fresh! Personally, I hate chopping vegetables so I jump at the chance to use frozen. 12 ounces of fresh or canned (rinsed and drained) also work well. 

Can you add in more vegetables?

Of course! Celery, mushrooms, zucchini, etc. The sky is the limit. I encourage you to use a combination of your favorite veggies. 

What type of potatoes should you use?

Use your preferred potatoes! Russet, yellow, red, or even sweet potatoes. What you see in the pictures is chopped baby red potatoes. 

How do you store leftovers?

Store leftover slow cooker ground beef vegetable soup in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. 

What size slow cooker did you use?

I use a  6-quart slow cooker or Instant Pot for this recipe.
