1 tablespoon butter
¼ cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic, chopped
½ teaspoon prepared horseradish
1 ½ pounds ground beef
2 (28 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, undrained
3 ½ cups water

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, turnips, and parsnips.
  • Brown the beef before adding it to the soup. This will help to develop its flavor and give the soup a richer color.
  • Use a good quality broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. If you don't have time to make your own, you can use a store-bought broth, but be sure to choose one that is low in sodium.
  • Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a splash of Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce for extra flavor.
  • Let the soup simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
  • Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the broth and make the meal more satisfying.

Conclusion:

Vegetable beef soup is a hearty and flavorful soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make a delicious vegetable beef soup that your whole family will enjoy.
