In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat (if using). Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it into small crumbles, until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess fat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onion softens and becomes translucent.
Transfer the cooked beef, onion, and garlic mixture to the crock pot.
Add the sliced carrots, sliced celery, diced potato, diced zucchini, frozen green beans, and frozen corn into the crock pot.
Pour in the diced tomatoes (with the juice) and stir in the tomato paste.
Add the low-sodium beef broth and water. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Season the soup with the bay leaf, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the vegetables are tender and the flavors are well blended.
Once cooked, remove the bay leaf and adjust seasonings if necessary.
Ladle the soup into bowls and serve warm. Enjoy a comforting and nutritious meal!
