Crock Pot Vegetable Beef Soup

Description: In an effort to use up leftover roast beef, I threw this ultra-thick soup in the crockpot. It made the whole house smell spectacular, and was oh-so-good. Make sure to use a large crockpot - this makes a LOT of soup.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups shredded roast beef
• 1 (1 1/4 ounce) package Lipton Onion Soup Mix
• 3 beef bouillon cubes
• 3 carrots, sliced
• 2 medium potatoes, diced
• 1 turnip, diced
• 1 cup frozen corn
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 cup shredded spinach
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce
• 1 tablespoon dried basil
• black pepper
• 32 ounces hot water

Steps:

1. Combine all ingredients in crock pot except for spinach.
2. Cook on high 6 hours, or until potatoes and turnips are tender.
3. Reduce heat to low and add spinach.
4. Cook an additional 30 minutes.
