1. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and crumbled, 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.

2. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant.

3. Transfer the beef mixture to a slow cooker. Add the crushed tomatoes, beef broth, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

4. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.

For a thicker soup, you can add an extra 1/2 cup of broken lasagna noodles. If you prefer a spicier soup, add a pinch of red pepper flakes. This soup also freezes well for up to 3 months.
