The other day, I made some vegetable beef soup (recipe below) and we took a couple of bowls up on a tray. Jeff had bread with his soup and I had crackers.
Vegetable Beef soup
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil (evoo)
1 large onion sliced thinly
1 clove minced garlic
1 pound of lean ground beef
1 large can of Veg-All (drained)
1 regular size can of kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
1 (or 2) regular size cans of sliced potatoes (drained)
1 can diced tomatoes (with liquid)
2 cans beef broth
1 Bay leaf
1 teaspoons Italian seasoning
In a Dutch oven, place EVOO and onions. Season with salt and pepper as desired. Cook until translucent. And garlic and cook for 1 minute.
In a frying pan, cook hamburger mean until crumbly. Drain. Add hamburger to onion mixture, as well as all other ingredients. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 30-45 minutes.
Serve with bread or crackers.
Yum!
