Hamburger Garden Soup
Taste of Home Ground Beef Cookbook
On our 4 acres in the country, we have a large vegetable and herb garden and raise our own steer. The only thing I need to buy for this soup is the garlic! Make this soup in summer with fresh produce, then freeze some for a hearty autumn meal. - Alma Grady, Falls Creek, Pennsylvania
