Slow Cooker French Dip Soup has the beef and au jus flavors that a French dip would have along with added pasta and veggies.

We love soup in our house, can’t get enough. I love to try new soups even though I do love standards like Split Pea Soup and Chicken Noodle.

Have you ever drank the au jus leftover after eating a French dip? I think that broth is so good that I made a soup based around it.

In this soup the beef cooks all day in the broth which flavors the soup and the beef gets fork tender. I add pasta and green beans at the end of the cooking time.

chicken broth, mushrooms, cavatappi pasta, onion, garlic, onion, beef and green beans.

Below is the beef and the soup ingredients. Be sure not to add the pasta or green beans in the all day cooking process.

After 9 hours of cooking I remove the beef and shred it. Then I add cooked cavatappi pasta (big curly noodles) and 2 cans of green beans.

If desired serve this soup topped with parmesan cheese and with crusty bread. This recipe makes a big pot! Great for leftovers or for serving a large crowd.

    Tried this recipe tonight and followed every step of the recipe and it had no flavor whatsoever. As a family of 5 no one ate it. I hate wasting food so I will try tomorrow to figure out a way to make it flavorful for my family.

    Due to a green bean allergy, no green beans. What do you recommend as a sub?

    1. Sarah Olson says:

      corn maybe? Or even zucchini.

    My family loves French dip and crockpot soups this looks like a win for us. Trying this week looking forward to it.

  7. Christine Laubsch Curry says:

    If I leave the mushrooms out due to an allergy, do I need to replace them with anything for flavoring purposes? Thanks!
