BEST EVER HAMBURGER SOUP
Don't be fooled by the title of this soup. It has wonderful flavor and is so hearty that it can be used as the main course along with some homemade bread. It is delicious. I make it a lot in the winter months when we have a lot of snow--it warms you up. You may use rice in place of the barley, or a little of both.

Steps:
- In a large pot over medium-high heat, brown the meat with the garlic, celery and onions. Remove the pot from the heat and drain off as much fat as you can. (Discard the fat once it cools.)
- Return the pot to the heat and add the beef stock, tomatoes, tomato paste, parsley, oregano, salt, black pepper, cayenne, potatoes, carrots and green, red and yellow bell peppers. Stir to combine, then bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pot and simmer until the potatoes are tender but not overly mushy, 15 to 20 more minutes. The soup should be somewhat thick, but if you'd like it to be more "soupy," add 1 to 2 cups more broth OR hot water and heat through. Taste and adjust the seasonings, adding more salt, black pepper or cayenne if needed.
- Serve with crusty bread!
HAMBURGER SOUP IV
This recipe is a favorite in my family. My grandma says it was a soup of the Depression era that evolved over time. As each of us made it for our families, we added to it. It is simple, affordable, and quite good. Add pearl onions and sliced zucchini, if desired.

CANADIAN HAMBURGER SOUP
This is my favourite recipe from the original Best of Bridge cookbook. I thought it was already posted here at Zaar, but since I can't find it I want to make sure it's included; I've only modified it slightly from the original. It's so easy to make and tastes so great!

Steps:
- In a large dutch oven, brown meat, adding onions and garlic. When meat has lost its pink colour, drain off any excess fat if there is any visible.
- Add all remaining ingredients, turn heat down to low so soup is barely simmering, cover, and let cook for about 2 hours (even longer is fine). After one hour, taste soup and add salt if necessary.
- If you have leftovers (soup freezes well, so consider making the whole pot even if it's a lot for your family), be aware that it tends to thicken when cool. When reheating, I always add a little more beef broth.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the soup will be. Look for fresh, ripe vegetables and flavorful ground beef.
- Brown the beef well: Browning the beef adds flavor and depth to the soup. Be sure to brown it over medium-high heat until it is well browned on all sides.
- Use a variety of vegetables: The more vegetables you use, the more flavorful and nutritious the soup will be. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and peas.
- Add some herbs and spices: Herbs and spices can add a lot of flavor to the soup. Some good options include garlic, onion powder, paprika, thyme, and rosemary.
- Let the soup simmer: Simmering the soup for at least 30 minutes allows the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer it, the better it will taste.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: Some good options include sour cream, shredded cheese, crackers, or bread.
