Crock Pot Cowboy Hamburger Soup

Crock Pot Cowboy Hamburger Soup


Crock Pot Cowboy Hamburger Soup is a hearty dish.  There will be plenty of leftovers for your family.  I love that the ingredients in this soup came from our garden and the beef came from a local farmer. 




We planted a big garden this spring.  We have spent a lot of weekends canning green beans, tomato juice, stewed tomatoes, sweet corn. It was a lot of work, but worth it in the end.  We have a lot of canned goods to enjoy this winter.  I love adding tomato juice and stewed tomatoes.

Mock Tacos

Mock Tacos


Mock Tacos are perfect for a quick summer meal.  We have these often for supper. Mock Tacos are simple and healthy.  Shhhh. Don’t tell the kids!!!



This is a simple meal to get your kids in the kitchen and cooking. If you let them pick their own toppings, they learn more about food choices.   If your kids prefer shredded chicken, you could make that another option as well.


This was a family favorite of my husbands when he grew up. I asked my mother in law why she named it Mock Tacos. She said when her daughters were in Girl Scouts, they would always request Girl Scout Tacos. Then, they called it Mock Tacos because it was everything but the shell.  





Most of the ingredients can be made ahead of time. Topping choices will vary from family to family.  I remember one of the first times my mother in law served it to me, we were on vacation in Minnesota.  


My boys love it with shredded cheese only! Insert the mom eye roll!!  I love how much yummy ingredients I can add - or pile up!

Three pounds of hamburger sounds like a lot, but this makes a big batch!  I used a scoop to make my meatballs, but I still used my hand to form the meatballs, so they were firmer and cooked better.
