3 large potatoes sliced
3 carrots sliced
1 pound of frozen peas (I made without this)
1 onion, diced
2 celery stalks, sliced thin
1-1/2 lbs of ground beef, brown it and drain it.
Can of tomato soup
1 soup can of water
Put the vegetables in the slow cooker in order listed. Salt and pepper each layer as you go.
Layer the beef on top of the celery. Mix the water and soup together then pour over the ground beef layer. Put the cover on the crock pot and cook on Low setting for 6-8 hours, or at the High setting for 2-4 hours.
The directions said to "stir occasionally" - and that's where my over-analytic side comes in. Why was it important to put it all in there in a certain order, if I'm just supposed to mix it all up? So I compromise...I'm cooking this on High and just stirred it after 2 hours of cooking time.
I also forgot to salt and pepper until about the 4th ingredient layer. Duh! I can't believe I can mess up such a simple recipe. Now you see why I made this blog. I can't be the only one out there like me.
