Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Season the pot roast generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
- Place it in a slow cooker and pour in half a can (about 5–6 oz) of beef broth.
- Cook on LOW for about 10 hours, or until the meat is easily pulled apart with two forks.
- Remove the roast and shred it with two forks, discarding excess fat.
Cooking
- In a large heavy pot, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped carrots and the frozen seasoning blend (or chopped onion).
- Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are softened and the onions are translucent, about 6–8 minutes.
- Add the shredded beef to the pot.
- Stir in the chopped russet potatoes, frozen peas, green beans, and corn.
- Pour in the remaining beef broth, both cans of tomato soup, and the can of water.
- Mix everything so the contents are evenly distributed.
- Bring the soup to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about one hour.
- Check the potatoes after 45 minutes; they should be tender but not falling apart.
- Taste and season with additional salt and pepper as needed.
- If the soup is thicker than you like, add warm water a half cup at a time until you reach the desired consistency.
- Serve hot.

Notes
Cool the soup to room temperature within two hours, then refrigerate in airtight containers for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze in portions for up to 3 months. Reheat gently on the stove.
