I used canned vegetables and added corn. It was easy and delicious!!!!
This soup was a huge hit at my New Year's Eve party. It's healthy, hearty, and so delicious on a cold winter's day. I omitted the cabbage and used a combination of corn and green peas instead. I also added a dash more oregano. I sauteed fresh mushrooms instead of using canned. This soup is definitely going into my winter rotation but it makes a lot. I plan to try freezing some the next time I make it.
I use Herbs de Provence instead of the herbs listed and omit mushrooms and green beans and use broccoli and potatoes instead. I use beef broth with this version and chicken broth with ham version.
My Family LOVES this soup!
This was great and even better the next day.
Love it but here are a few changes I make just to make it even more of a pantry meal:I substitute beef broth with one can of tomato paste instead of the tomato juice. Lower sodium and always in my pantry.Also, I usually have shredded zucchini in my freezer so I throw 2 c. of that in instead of the cabbage.Either way, it's a great soup!
This is a healthy, fulfilling recipe that we keep coming back to. My kids DO love it (even after much protesting otherwise), and I love that it is so nourishing!
I thought this was wonderful! Very happy with the results and will be making it again!
Next time I will I cut down the beef to 1 lb and add cubed potatoes.
One of the best soups I have ever made. I did make a few changes to it. I only added 1 pound ground beef, used a 10 oz. can of sliced mushrooms and I left out the green beans. I added 2 1/2 cups celery and 3 cups each carrots and cabbage, I also used 2 cloves minced garlic in stead of the garlic powder and only added 3/4 teaspoon salt. Will make soup again!
