Paula @ Gracefilled Moments A Cozy Bowl of Comfort: Vegetable Beef Soup with a Twist
I’m a soup gal and will gladly indulge in a bowl anytime of year. But, there’s something so comforting about a warm bowl of soup, especially during the chilly autumn and winter months. While I typically use soup meat for my vegetable beef soup, I found myself in a bit of a pinch this time around. I didn’t have any on hand, but I did have a package of ground beef.
So… I decided to take a chance and use the hamburger instead. Let me tell you, it was a fantastic decision! As the soup simmered on the stove, the aroma teasingly filled the kitchen. I couldn’t wait to taste it, and when I finally did, I was blown away.
Why Hamburg?
I know, I know. It might sound unconventional, but trust me, it works! Ground beef adds a rich, meaty flavor to the soup without breaking the bank. Plus, it’s incredibly versatile and easy to cook.
This Vegetable Beef Soup with Hamburg is:
- Easy to make: With frozen vegetables and potatoes, this soup comes together quickly.
- Flavorful: The combination of spices, vegetables, and ground beef creates a delicious and satisfying soup.
- Comforting: A perfect meal for a chilly day.

I make this sometimes, too! I also love to make must-go soup – everything in the refrigerator must go! I take whatever leftovers we have and make it into a soup, using up things like leftover mamwich, spaghetti sauce, chili, taco meat, etc. I also love to use leftover gravy, pasta sauce, etc. as the base for soups. Leftover mashed potatoes are delicious to add as soup thickener, too. The soups I make rarely taste the same, as they are so varied, but combining the leftovers is just delicious! I have written about this very thing on my blog and will probably be doing that again soon since we are going into cold weather. God bless you, sweet friend!
I love the idea of everything must go soup! I’m going to have to remember this. I’m going to have to stop over and browse your post’s about this soon
Made something similar before, and will pin this to make your version as well
