Pour in the canned diced tomatoes (with juice) and beef broth. Stir in the tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and bay leaf.

Step 5

Stir the ingredients together to combine evenly.

Step 6

Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours, until the beef is tender and the vegetables are fully cooked.

Step 7

Before serving, remove the bay leaf. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 8

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
