Really good vegetable soup recipe. I made it exactly as written except I used fresh carrots instead of frozen and I let it simmer for at least 1/2 hour.

This soup is absolutely delicious. Great in the winter or any time of year. I will be preparing this recipe again and again. I highly recommend this recipe as a Volunteer Field Editor for Taste of Home.

Loved the soup. Quick and easy to make for a large crowd. Tastes better without meat.

I used canned vegtables instead of frozen and it turned out just as good. Hamburger is much easier to have on hand than cuts of beef.

Sometimes I use stew meat instead of ground beef. I think it makes it even better!
