This soup is my childhood comfort food. My mom used to make this for me and I absolutely loved it. She made it with rice and her sister made it with potatoes. I like it both ways, but find the potatoes hold up better as leftovers. Add any veggies you want - heck, clean out your fridge if need be. Super versatile soup - so feel free to switch it up!
Hamburger Soup
1 lb hamburger
small diced onion
3-4 carrots, sliced
Chopped potatoes - any kind and however much or little you want
32 oz carton beef stock
28 oz can crushed tomatoes
1/2 tsp parsley
1 tsp oregano
2 bay leaves
1/2 small head of cabbage chopped
salt + pepper to taste
In a large pot, brown your hamburger. Then add in onion and cook for a minute. Add in remaining ingredients EXCEPT the carrots and the cabbage and cook until potatoes just start to become soft and add in carrots. Then cook awhile longer and as soon as carrots are starting to soften, add in cabbage. Keep simmering until your veggies are soft, salt + pepper to taste. Enjoy!
