2 cups cooked pasta (added at the end; optional)
Instructions
-
Chop the onion, carrots, celery, potatoes, and garlic into small, even pieces.

In a skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
-
Add the cooked beef to the crock pot along with the chopped vegetables, diced tomatoes, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, corn, and green beans.
-
Stir everything together to distribute flavors evenly.
-
Cover and cook on Low for 6–8 hours or High for 3–4 hours.

About 30 minutes before serving, cook the pasta separately until al dente.
-
Add the cooked pasta to the soup and stir gently.
-
Ladle into bowls and serve warm. Garnish with grated cheese or herbs if desired.
Notes
Cook pasta separately to prevent it from becoming mushy.
Add extra broth if you prefer a thinner soup.
Feel free to swap ground beef with turkey, chicken, or plant-based meat.
Soup reheats and freezes well (freeze without pasta for best texture).
