Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion finely diced
  • 2 carrots finely diced
  • 2 stalks celery finely diced
  • 1 15 oz can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 15 oz can dark red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 15 oz can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 26 oz container beef stock (or 3 cups)
  • 1 25 oz jar jar spaghetti sauce
  • 2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup ditalini pasta or your favorite pasta shape

Instructions

  • In a large skillet that's been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray add the ground beef and begin cooking while breaking up the meat. Cook until the meat is browned about 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Place the cooked ground beef in a colander to drain the excess grease.
  • Add the cooked ground beef to the crock pot.
  • Add all the other ingredients to the crock pot (except for pasta) and stir.
  • Set slow cooker on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours.
  • During the last 30 minutes or so of cooking, add in the uncooked pasta and stir.

Notes

Pasta likes to absorb a lot of the liquid so if you find your soup is too thick, just add a little extra broth to get it to the consistency you prefer.
