Add the frozen vegetables, chopped potatoes, spice blend, beef broth, and worcestershire sauce to the inner pot of your pressure cooker, the slow cooker, or a large pot on the stove.
Break up the ground beef into bite size pieces and add to the pot. Stir to combine everything.
Pressure Cooker Instructions
Put the pressure lid on and turn the valve to seal. Pressure cook on high for 2 minutes. When the time is up turn the valve to vent to release the pressure.
Remove the lid and stir in the peas if using. Taste for seasonings and add more to taste.
Serve & Enjoy
Slow Cooker Instructions
Add an additional 1 cup of beef broth. Put the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for about 4 hours and on high for about 2 hours.
When everything is cooked through add the peas if using and stir into the soup. The residual heat will cook the peas. Season to taste with more seasonings if desired.
Top each bowl with croutons and/or freshly chopped parsley. Serve and Enjoy!
Stovetop Instructions
Add 2 additional cups of broth to the soup. Bring the pot to a boil, stirring occasionally. You can skim off any foam or particles that rise to the top from the ground beef if desired.
Once the pot of soup is boiling, reduce the heat to medium low or to a heat setting that keeps the pot at a simmer. Simmer for 30-45 minutes.
Add the peas if using. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
