Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, tomatoes, and green beans.
  • Brown the beef before adding it to the soup. This will help to develop the beef's flavor and prevent it from becoming tough.
