Hamburger Vegetable Soup

 

Hamburger vegetable soup is a hearty and nutritious soup that typically includes ground beef (hamburger) as its primary protein source, along with a variety of vegetables and seasonings. The ingredients can vary widely, but common vegetables include carrots, potatoes, celery, bell peppers, and tomatoes. It is often seasoned with herbs like thyme, bay leaves, and sometimes a splash of Worcestershire sauce for added flavor.

To prepare hamburger vegetable soup, the ground beef is generally browned first, then the vegetables are added, followed by broth or water to create the soup base. The mixture is simmered until all the ingredients are tender and flavors meld together.

This soup is popular for its comforting qualities and can be easily customized based on available ingredients or personal preferences. It’s a great way to use up leftover vegetables and is often enjoyed with bread, cornbread or crackers.
