Slow Cooker Beef & Pepper Soup

This grain-free soup is still filling thanks to the lean ground beef and cauliflower. Throw in some yellow and green bell peppers (extra color = variety of nutrients) and let the Crock-Pot cook it all until both the veggies and the meat are super tender.

Ingredients 

1 lb. extra-lean ground beef;

1 cup onion, diced;

2 cups cauliflower, minced;

2 bell peppers (any color), chopped;

15 oz. diced tomatoes;

15 oz. tomato sauce;

3 cups beef stock;

½ tsp. dried basil;

½ tsp. dried oregano;

3 cloves garlic, crushed;

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper;

Preparation

Coat Non Fat Spray Pam in a skillet placed over a medium-high heat and cook the onion and the garlic for 1 minute.

Add the beef to the skillet and cook until the meat is browned.

Place the beef and onion mixture in a slow cooker.

Add all the remaining ingredients, season to taste, and give everything a good stir.

Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
