Hamburger Soup Recipe
We love this hamburger soup so much that it makes a regular appearance at our table. Even during the hot summer months!ย
Simple to make, with only a little chopping needed, and it has the perfect hearty flavor that makes it the best kind of comfort food. Condensed tomato soup & worcestershire sauce are the “secret ingredients” in my hamburger soup that really provides the perfect hearty tomato flavor and thickness to the soup.ย
What You’ll Need
Simple and inexpensive ingredients are all you need to make hamburger soup.
- Ground Beef – I use 93/7 lean ground beef. You drain the excess grease so you can really use any kind you like or what you have.
- Onion – Use a yellow onion or a white onion for this recipe.ย
- Garlic – Fresh garlic cloves, chopped garlic from a jar, or garlic paste from a tube can all be used in this recipe.ย
- Salt & Pepper
- Chopped Yukon Gold Potatoes – Peel the potatoes and then chop into really small pieces. Like less than 1/2-inch pieces.ย
- Beef Broth – I always use full-salt beef broth. You want that extra flavor in this soup.ย
- Condensed Tomato Soup – My “secret ingredient” that really makes it delicious.
- Petite Diced Tomatoes
- Frozen Mixed Vegetables – I buy a bag of frozen vegetables that has carrots, peas, corn, and green beans in it.
- Worcestershire Sauce – Don’t leave this out! Really provides a lot of flavor with just a little bit.
- Dried Parsley
- Dried Basil
How To Make Hamburger Soup
You only need one pot to make this recipe!
Cook The Ground Beef : In the soup pot you are using, cook & crumble the ground beef, onion, garlic, and salt. When the ground beef is no longer pink you know it’s done. Drain the excess grease and liquid.ย
Chop The Potatoes : While the ground beef is cooking, peel and chop the potatoes into really small pieces.ย
Soup Ingredients : Add the chopped potatoes along with the remaining ingredients into the soup pot and stir.
Simmer Soup : Bring the soup to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium low, cover the pot with a lid, and simmer for at least 30 minutes. This soup tastes 100x better if you let it simmer for the 30 minutes.ย
Tips For Success
Here are a few tips to help you make this recipe.
- Let It Simmer : This is so important! This soup tastes so much better after the 30 minute simmer time. Don’t try to shorten it or else the flavor of the soup will be impacted.ย
- Small Potato Chunks : Chop the potato into really small chunks, about 1/2-inch in size, so that they will soften in the 30 minute simmer time. If the potato chunks are larger, they will need to cook longer, so test the potatoes to see if they’re done.ย
- Check The Soup At The End For Taste : Taste the soup after the simmering time to see if it needs more salt & pepper. I usually end up adding a little bit of salt before serving. Especially if you use low-salt beef broth, check the taste, because you will probably have to add something until it’s where you want it.ย
- Use Full Salt Beef Broth : For best taste and flavor use the regular beef broth. As mentioned above, if you use the lower sodium beef broth then check the taste at the end of the simmer time and add additional salt as needed.
Variation Ideas
There are a few ways to change up this soup.
- Add More Seasonings : We think it’s perfect as is but feel free to add additional seasonings if wanted. You can add Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, or even some chili powder or cayenne pepper for some spice.ย
- Use a Different Potato : I love the sweeter, buttery flavor of the Yukon gold potato but any potato can be used in this recipe. Red potatoes or Russet potatoes can all be used if wanted.ย
- Add Some Spice! : Use a can of diced tomatoes w/ green chilies or a can of Rotel diced tomatoes in place of the regular petite diced tomatoes. You can also add cayenne pepper or chili powder in with the other dried seasonings.ย
Serving Suggestions
I like to serve this soup with some bread on the side like these easy to make one hour rolls. You can make your favorite homemade bread or roll recipe, or buy some from the deli, or try some of the frozen bake n’ serve rolls from the freezer section of the grocery store.ย
If you want to serve it with another side dish try serving it with some cut up fresh fruit that your family loves.ย
How To Store Leftovers
Store leftovers in a covered container, like a Tupperware container, in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.ย
Reheat leftovers in the microwave or warm it back up on the stove top.ย
Can I Freeze Hamburger Soup?
Yes! This hamburger soup freezes perfectly.ย
Put leftover soup in a freezer-safe gallon Ziploc bag, or freezer safe container, and freeze for up to 3 months.ย
When ready to use the frozen soup, thaw leftover soup in the fridge overnight, or add the frozen soup into a soup pot over the stove and simmer until it’s ready. You may have to add additional broth or water when reheating the frozen soup.ย

Did You Make This Recipe?
I'd love to see it! You can share it with me on @togetherasfamilyblog and follow on Pinterest @together-as-family-blog-recipes or Facebook @togetherasfamilyblog for more!
This recipe has been updated and republished with new pictures and more helpful text in August 2021. I also changed the title on the post from ‘tomato hamburger vegetable soup’ to ‘hamburger soup’. Older picture below.
This was an amazing recipe, so I decided to do a double batch of it. When I did that, I did not use the diced tomatoes, and I noticed that towards the end the flavor was a tad weaker than I expected. So I added in a bit more salt and a few more shakes of Worcestershire along with a small bit of oregano and perfect. Not to mention, it gave me an excuse to break out my new dutch oven.
We love this soup too! The seasonings are very adaptable, I should probably make note of that, I always end up adding a bit more salt at the end too. A new Dutch oven! That’s exciting ?
O M G is there any way that I can rate this? Definitely 5 stars!!! All the way! I made this for my mom as our dinner and she could not wait for it to be done. When I went back to check on it, she was already on her second bowl. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe, I am so happy right now with all the compliments I received about it.
I do have a star rating system and I would love 5 stars. That makes me so happy to hear! We love this one too so I am really happy others enjoy it as much as we do. Thanks for reaching out to me and letting me know.
Is there a way to do this in an instapot?
Yes, I think so. I would brown the ground beef with the onion in the IP on the saute setting. Turn off saute setting and add all the other ingredients. I have never cooked it in the IP so I am just guessing on time, but I would say 10 minutes maybe? Do a quick release and serve. I think it would work fine!
I did it just as she said, it worked amazing
This was so good. I added an envelope of dried onion soup. My husband loved it.
I’m making it right now and I slso added a packet of the onion soup
OMG! I love this soup. I love eating soup period. I also love okra in these kind of dishes so I got out the chopped frozen okra, rolled it in corn bread meal and added it to the soup as well. The acid in this tomato base of soup prevents the okra from becoming slimy. This is a 5 star soup.
Thank you so much Roma! It’s one of my favorite soups. I’ve never tried okra so I just may have to give it a try.
T okra is a thickener also, it was used in a lot of cajun foods to replace flour in the fancier dishes.
I make this often for my family of 5 and we love it! I’ve never liked tomato soup but I sure do eat this up with some corn bread! I omit the canned tomatoes and seems to be okay. I also always add a pinch or so of sugar…to offset the tomato-y flavor. So good, thanks for the instant pot comments as well. Will be trying that next!
I did change recipe a tad due to what I had on hand and I worked by taste. I love the idea of adding okra. I didn’t use the tomatoe soup but more tomatoes and beef broth and a little browning sauce in place of worchestershire sauce. It was awesome and too thick to add any pasta which I often do in soup.. So glad because it kept it different and was delicious. I had tiny golden potatoes which I cut up but did not peel.
So happy to hear you liked the soup! I also love reading in comments how people changed up a recipe to work for them, thank you for sharing!
Ok, Jessica, Ive been looking for this soup because my son says his girlfriends mother makes it and its his favorite. I’m counting on you. !! LOL. I grew up on a dairy farm and never heard of this soup. I did however have something close to it in Virginia at one of Thomas Jefferson pub hang outs were they serve classic revolutionary food. No pressure right. Let you know how it went.
Is there any substitute for canned tomato soup? Trying to cut down on the prepared condensed soups.
You could try using canned tomato sauce but it does not have the flavor or slight sweetness that tomato soup has. Maybe try a tomato sauce with the Italian herbs in it.
Hi. Cathy,
I am gluten free and can’t have canned tomato soup. instead I used 4 Tbsp tomato paste and about 3/4 of a cup of water.
I know your question was a few years ago but maybe this will help someone with the same question.
This soup is AMAZING! Thank you for sharing it. I doubled the recipie so i could freeze some for later..not so sure its going to get to that freezer,lol
haha, I hope it makes it to the freezer ๐ The soup freezes really well. I always add some broth or water when I reheat it. So happy to hear you loved this soup and THANK YOU for the 5 star rating.
I like to add an individual serving can of tomato juice when reheating after freezing. It deepens the tomato flavor!!
Oh yum. I love that idea of the tomato juice. I bet that is amazing. Thanks for your comment.
Love this soup! How long would you suggest for doing it in the slow cooker? Thanks!
Depending on how hot your slow cooker cooks, I would say 5-6 hours on low. It could stay on warm for awhile afterwards if needed. The meat is already cooked so it’s just blending the flavors and getting the veggies soft.
I made this with a can of Italian stewed tomatoes and a can of tomato sauce. Also I pre-cooked fresh potatoes and carrots so they wouldn’t be under-cooked when the soup was done. Added a can of corn, but no frozen vegetables. Turned out great!!
Can you make this in a crock pot?
Yes you can. Just make sure the ground beef is cooked and then add everything together in the crock pot. Cook on low for 4-6 hours.
This soup my boyfriend said was so yummy. I had to cook in the crock though for about 8 hrs because the carrots and the potatoes were not close to being done at at 4-6 hrs.
Thanks for your comment! Iโm glad it still worked out even though it needed extra cooking timer.
This soup is super ! I’ve made it several times and my family loves it. I often add chopped cabbage , I love the flavor it adds…sometimes I also add extra black pepper also. .
Thanks for this recipe, its reminiscent of a soup we made over a camp fire when I was a girl scout.
Oh, how fun. I was in girl scouts long ago too! Thanks for your feedback and comment. I appreciate it.
Great soup! Big hit with the family!
I found your recipe when I was searching for comfort food. My husband and I loved this soup. We donโt eat a lot of garlic so I used one clove. As it was finishing, the smell had my husband circling around the stove. Thank you for such as easy delicious meal. Plan to put it in the rotation.
My husband does that too, haha ๐ I am so glad you guys love this soup. Thanks so much for taking the time to come back and leave your rating and review.
Wow! I’ve tried a lot of homemade soup recipes over the years, but this one is tops for flavor! My husband could not stop raving about it and has already told me I need to make it again soon. Delicious! Thank you for the great recipe.
Youโre so welcome. And Iโm so happy you love this recipe. Itโs definitely one of my favorite soups.
I love this soup. Use canned vegetables and rinse them, used ground turkey instead of beef, and tomato sauce instead of the soup. Cooking for a diabetic. She loves it.
Thanks so much
Youโre welcome! And Iโm so glad you can adapt it. Iโm a big fan of ground turkey so sometimes Iโll use it in this soup.
approximately how many servings do you get out of this recipe? I need to feed a crowd and was wondering how to calculate what I need to purchase, but I couldn’t find serving information anywhere.
Iโll have to go add it in. This makes 6 big servings or for my family I can get 8 servings cause of little kids. We always have leftovers for lunch for 1-2 days after.
Made this today and it was wonderful on a cold Sunday afternoon. I used ground lamb meat instead of beef and added a couple of bay leaves. Delicious! That you so much for sharing it.
Youโre so welcome. I do love bay leaves. Iโll have to add those when I make this again.
How much does this recipe serve/yield?
6-8 adult sized servings. If kids are eating then you can get more servings from it.
Thank you so much for this easy yet delicious recipe!! This recipe is perfection, i will absolutely be adding it to my cookbook! The only thing i had to do differently was finding a substitute for tomato soup, as i only had tomato sauce on hand. I googled a substitute and this one worked perfectly: 1 can tomato sauce, 1 TBSP brown sugar, 1 TBSP corn starch, 1/2 tsp salt. Next time i will have that tomato soup so its even easier ? The only thing i intentionally added was one bay leaf while simmering. Thank you again!
Thanks for sharing the tomato soup substitute. I did not know you could that. And, it makes me very happy that this recipe is a winner. My family loves it too.
We loved the soup and it was so easy to make. It’s great on a cold winter day.
Iโm going to try it without the meat. Has anyone done that yet? Sounds yummy.
I grew up on this soup and made it for my family too – even the toasted hamburger buns!! Still a favorite easy winter recipe.
The best Vegetable Beef Soup I have ever eaten. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
I love this soup! Its so good with what I call a ‘salt & pepper cole slaw ‘ and homemade cornbread omg I think I gotta make some tonight now that its cold weather
Hi, delicious soup. I’ve been making this for over 40 years. The recipe was given to an aunt by her Doctor when she was diagnosed with Diabetes. The only difference is I use 28 oz. can of Italian Tomatoes in place of tomato soup and diced tomatoes. Also, doesn’t need beef broth. Very good and freezes beautifully. This is my weekly 30 minute meal.
What a delicious soup! This is the best vegetable soup we have ever tasted. I used stew beef instead of hamburger and it turned out really great. I cut the potatoes into a little larger cubes so they stay a little firmer and they did cook completely. I cut the stew beef in bite-sized pieces and the meat cooked completely too. The flavor of the soup is out of this world. thank you for sharing this recipe with us.
This soup is delicious! I substituted cauliflower for the potatoes and used organic tomatoe soup to cut down on starch and sugar. I will make this again!
This soup is just like one i remember eating as a kid and i have made it as an adult but since money is tight and weather is cold i think it is what is for dinner tonight lol thank you so much for the ideas and yes it is a 5 star meal ๐ <3
Love the recipe. I add Ditalini pasta instead of potatoes. A very versatile recipe. Thanks for sharing.
I made this soup today. I followed the directions and the soup was just great! This is a keeper!
Would it work to use frozen hash brown potatoes in place of chopping some up? (That way theyโre uniformly sized AND I donโt have to actually chop them!)
That’s a great idea. I think that would work. I would maybe thaw them for a bit before adding to the soup (so you don’t add too much water). Let me know how it goes cause that’s a big time saver.
Simmering on the stove. Using venison cause that’s our “beef” no tomato soup, so just diced and sauce. Smells good. My dad is the one to please. Here’s hoping… Thanks!
I made this for my family tonight and I ate 2 bowls and my husband said he loves it! Will make again and very inexpensive!
Five stars ! I do this in my instant pot. After sautรฉing the ground beef with onions and garlic, I drain it, then add back into the instant pot with all other ingredients. High pressure 17 mins. I do let it sit a few mins and then quick release pressure. It was marvelous !! I love adding frozen veggies. I use regular beef broth, regular tomato soup, and I do not find it needs any salt added.
Um, yum! Great leftovers, too!
Yummy and Easy. What is the serving portion size ( 1 Cup? 2 Cups? ) I am trying to figure out how much you can eat for the 266 calories listed for 1 serving. I am not familiar with the kcal terminology for calories shown in the recipe.
The kcal is just calories. I am honestly not sure why it’s listed like that. The serving size I used was 1 1/2 cups of soup. I hope that helps.
I made this soup… I doubled the recipe .. I substituted a jar of marinara sauce and a half jar of water for the tomato soup.. just for some added flavor… great soup!!! Easy to make and very hearty
How much cook time would you say for crockpot on low or high?
I would do LOW heat for maybe 4-5 hours. Just make sure the ground beef is cooked before adding it into the slow cooker.
A nearly perfect soup. I have cooked this many times now. I use chicken broth instead of beef broth and I usually double the recipe because we can happily eat this soup for a meal or 2 for a few days. I eat it for breakfast sometimes. It is so nourishing an satisfying. You feel good after you eat it. Especially when it is cold outside. Thank you for a great recipe for this classic American soup.
Such an easy recipe! I made it exactly the way the recipe states. No need to tweak at all! Perfect for a chilly day!
I love hearing this! Thanks so much for your comment.
Delicious. Thank you!
My best friend’s mother made this soup all the time when I was growing up. The only difference is instead of using canned tomato soup she used to put in a bottle of ketchup. That would make it slightly sweeter then the tomato soup but it was delicious.
Interesting with the ketchup! Now that I think about it I think my mom may have done that too sometimes. So glad you enjoyed this version ๐
This looks really good! How long should I cook this in a slow cooker?
I would cook the ground beef first and then cook everything on LOW for 5-7 hours depending on how hot your crock pot cooks at.
Googled vegetable soup with ground beef & this on came up. So glad it did! Delicious and so easy! My Husband and 89yr old mom really enjoyed. I followed recipe but store I was shopping did not have low sodium broth so I did not add much extra salt.
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! It really was easy to make. Mines is still stewing but the Aroma in my kitchen right now have my family excited to try! Thanks so much, and looking forward to try more of your recipes.โค๏ธ
So I am making this again for the 3rd time I think lol. I am using ground Turkey this time instead of ground beef. I love this recipe soooooo much. Thank you
So happy to hear you love it! And yes, I’ve used ground turkey before too. Yummy!
It was really good!
Very good easy recipe, I switched out white potato for sweet potato for healthier option.
I make something similar to this and I add hot salsa sauce to it. This is also good with garlic bread or french bread (baguette).
Amazing!! We have made this about once a week to have in the fridge for lunches etc. I use Rotel fire roasted tomatos & season with Tony chaceres Cajun seasoning for just a tad of spice. Love love love!!!
Just made this today. So easy. Followed the instructions but then put it in a Crock-Pot and let it simmer for a few hours. LOVED IT โค๏ธ.
I make this soup but put all vegetables and can vegetables. I use potatoes, yams, turnips and brussel sprouts. I will use tomato soup or bravo sauce and spices. I also use lipton onion soup mix.
I doubled the recipe. I was short one can of tomatoes and did not have the tomato soup. I instead used spicy V-8 juice. I then choose not to use the basil or the parsley. I did put in 3 stalks of celery. It turned out well.
My family and I loved this soup. It was so easy to make. I even went lazy and used a can of diced potatoes. My son and I fought over the last bowl…lol. we were sad to see it was all.
I like the idea of canned potatoes! I may have to try that cause it would definitely be faster with those. Thanks for leaving your comment!
Dear Jessica there needs to be more stars the reason why I chose your recipe was because of the picture when I was growing up and even when I came home on leave from the service my grandmother always had a pot of vegetable soup waiting for me and your picture looks exactly like the way hers did show my stomach and I and my memories thank you
You’re so sweet. Thank you for your kind comment, it made my day. Happy I can help bring back some memories. Thanks for being here and trying the recipe. It means a lot to me.
Very simple, delicious, and filling soup! The recipe as written makes a good amount, probably eight generous servings, so if you double it, you are going to have *a lot* of soup.
I’m writing this in the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic, and grocery shopping is kind of hit or miss…this soup is very adaptable. You could use any ground meat – beef, turkey, sausage (or none at all and add some extra veggies or rice/pasta) – and it would still be excellent.
I know all slow cookers are different, but that method didn’t work out with mine, after 7 hours the veggies and potatoes were still not tender. Next time I will just do it on the stovetop.
Either way, this one is a keeper!
This is a keeper! The taste is amazing! So easy to fix and I had all of the ingredients on hand.
Easy to make and delicious! Just the right blend of seasoning. I used turkey instead of ground beef, used very few white potatoes, and left out the salt and pepper, and instead of tomato soup I used tomato sauce with corn starch & brown sugar. I will add extra vegetables next time and serve over rice!
Hello! I followed this recipe to the โteeโ and it came out delicious! It reminds me of when I was a kid and couldnโt wait to eat soup on Sunday for dinner in the winter…although I can eat soup in hot weather too! Thanks for a great recipe!
Definitely easy convenient, and enough for the family…
This is the first recipe of yours that I’ve tried. Oh man, it has great flavor and surprisedly quite hearty! I followed it exactly– except the ground beef. I would definitely recommend the lean or turkey (as the recipe suggests) if you would rather not have the film floating on the top. I served it with garlic bread. We’re a family of four and everyone was super impressed ๐ Thank you! I love this soup. It’s simple & fun to make– absolutely a keeper. I’m looking forward to trying more of your recipes.
This made my day! So happy to have you here and I hope you find lots more recipes that your family will love. Thanks for your comment and star rating. I really appreciate it so much.
One of those recipes that you will want to hold onto!! The absolute BEST vegetable soup my family has ever had
Made this for dinner today. Didnโt have condensed tomato soup so used tomato juice instead. Was a little soupy so added some ditalini pasta at the end and itโs perfect!
Itโs going to sound weird, but this soup with a side of peanut butter on bread brings back childhood memories. I donโt know why, but it just works together. So yummy on a chilly day!
5 STAR TASTE! Comes together fast and easy.
This recipe is awesome! Husband really liked it! Thanks for sharing it!
Super Great
I have tried so many vegetable soup recipes and this one is our favorite! My husband says this recipe is the closest to how his grandmother’s tasted! I have made it 3 times this fall already! Thanks for sharing! Super easy to make and simple ingredients! I just made it tonight!
I made this comfort soup for my family every winter. We absolutely love it and it freezes well also!
Used turkey instead of beef used a can of stewed tomatoes, no extra salt. It was perfect!
Forgot to mention, 30 minutes in the instant pot!
Making it for second time.
Best soup recipe!! I didn’t have tomato soup so I read your recommendation in one of the comments. I ended up using petite diced tomatoes that had olive oil and garlic and then a can of tomato sauce. Next time I’ll make sure I have tomato soup for the full taste. It was so good though. This is my first recipe from you and it was a hit! Thank you! I’ll try more of your recipes!! โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
So happy to hear this! And thank you for visiting and leaving your comment. I appreciate it.
I generally do not care for vegetable soup, but I made this soup today and loved it! Iโve sent the recipe to both of my kids, so they can try it too!
Yay! Thanks for sharing the recipe and for leaving a comment. I love hearing stuff like this!
This is the best soup I have had in a long time. Very easy to make and the taste is outstanding. This is a five star recipe.
Thanks so much! Happy to hear it was a hit. Thank you for making the recipe and coming back here to comment and rate it. I appreciate it.
I made this soup last night. It was very good. My husband had two helpings. He is not really a soup fan.I will definitely make it again. I give it 5 stars.
Thank you!! My husband is the same way when it comes to soup ๐ So glad you guys loved the recipe. Thanks for coming back to let me know.
Can I leave out the diced tomatoes? My son doesnโt like tomatoes.
Yes I think that would be fine. Not sure how much it would change the flavor… but you could definitely just not add them. If it’s the tomato chunks he does not like maybe try using a seasoned tomato sauce, tomato puree, or crushed tomatoes.
Made today and loved it! Kept me full too!
My favorite beef veggie soup. Love the addition of the condensed soup. Canโt get a bough
I have used the same recipe for beef vegtable soup for years. I decided to try this one at last minute and I am glad I did. My husband said it was the best beef vegtable soup I had ever made. I was a little concerned about adding the condensed tomato soup but it really added to the flavor. I am not a fan of worcestershire sauce so I did not add. It was still amazing flavor.

I love this recipe! I like to add a fresh chopped jalapeรฑo and a pinch of cayenne. It’s delicious without, but I like it a little spicy.
Excellent soup. My family loved it. I used ground turkey and seasoned it while it cooked. I also added a little oil to the pan.
Made this and it was delicious!
So good to hear that! Thank you for leaving your comment and rating. I appreciate it.
This recipe was delicious, fast, and easy to make! Family loved it!
We loved it! Delicious flavor and hearty. I substituted a jar of my own canned tomatoes for the tomato soup and diced tomatoes. I canโt wait to take it as a meal for someone.
I made this recipe for my family yesterday. It is so delicious!! This is the best vegetable soup that I have ever eaten. It is super easy too!
The only thing I did different was instead of a regular can of diced tomatoes I used a can of rotel tomatoes, it gave it such great flavor, I’d definitely make this again.
This soup was delicious!! Itโs now one of my new favorites!
Very easy and tasty. I doubled the recipe and cooked in an Instant Pot. Followed the recipe exactly otherwise. I personally think the salt needs to be doubled. We topped with Cheddar Goldfish crackers. Even better as leftovers.
I have searched for a vegetable soup that we all enjoy and gave up already! Then I happened upon this one and hit the ball out of the ballpark with it! My MIL asked for the recipe and the in-laws are loving it! Super easy and delicious! 5 stars for sure!
This became my new favorite soup. I absolutely love this.
I made the hamburger soup recipe. It was delicious and it seems we canโt get enough. I changed up some of the vegetables. I have never heard of putting basil in soup. I did and it taste great with basil. I was pleased that the recipe turned out good. It was a quick meal. It only took about 20 minutes. And a little bit to summer. I am giving this recipe an A and will keep it in mind for a quick meal.
Just what my family and I needed on this cool rainy day! Very good soup recipe. Even better the next day too! And so easy to make.
I
This is a wonderful soup anytime of the year! Sometimes I use ground turkey instead of ground beef. It is healthier and less expensive. Instead of canned tomato soup, I use V-8 juice and it adds a very nice flavor. I have shared this recipe with family and friends and everyone loves it!
So good! Very easy to make and the ingredients were simple and fun to play with. My family loved this. I paired it with honey cornbread muffins. Delicious!!
Oh yum! Cornbread is like my #1 favorite food… that sounds like an amazing meal you made.
Love this easy and delicious soup! Very forgiving, I add any leftover vegetables from fridge, box of broth instead of 2 cans (so a little more), whole onion, and pepper. My family loves soup and this one is a favorite. I needed to stretch it one night due to unexpected guests, added another can of chopped tomatoes, extra potatoes, and broth. Still so good.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your comment, I appreciate the feedback!
I’ll give it 6.Very easy to make,and is delicious.
This was absolutely delicious. I used the recipe as is, but added some leftover celery so that it did not go to waste. This is so flavorful and I love having recipes that remind me of my mom. She used to make this all the time, but this one just has an extra depth of flavor. We eat it over rice with a little bit of soy sauce. Thanks for the stellar recipe.
I love hearing how people make the recipes their own. It is so special to hear that it reminds you of your mom!
Can u use chicken broth instead of beef broth. Thatโs all I have in cupboard?
That should work out just fine! It will lighten the deeper ‘beef’ flavor of the soup but it will still be delicious!
Awesome soup
Thank you!
Just made this recipe and after reading the comments, I added a packet of French onion soup mix, a little chili powder, and some red pepper flakes. Itโs fantastic!!!
Love the idea of adding those seasonings!
Really good. Easy to make and it tastes great the next day!
So glad you liked it! Thanks for your comment!
This soup is a super keeper, I triple the recipe because I love to make a lot at once you freeze the rest, I did add roasted red peppers and roasted tomatoes, I take care of old people for a living, I cook for them and they loved it. Great job. Thanks for your wonderful recipe.
Love the idea of adding the peppers and tomatoes. So happy to hear that you, and the people you care for, like it!
I am definitely going to try this recipe! Thank you!
Let me know how you like it! ๐ค
Tried this and my family loved it! Thank you for sharing the recipe.
Wonderful! Thanks for commenting!
Excellent. We enjoyed the soup very much. ๐
Oh good! Thank you for commenting!
I made this soup last night. my kids and grandson loved it. It was better than my mom used to make. I’m from the south, so I made cornbread to serve with it. I will definitely make this again.
Cornbread with soup is always a fantastic idea, now Iโm craving some! Iโm so glad the soup was liked all.

very straightforward and easy. one pot supper. very good!
I love a one pot dinner! Iโm so happy you liked it!
Excellent! Made this as I thawed out some ground beef and didn’t want spaghetti, tacos or meatloaf! It was so easy to follow the recipe and quick to make. It really saved the day and my family says it’s a keeper. My mom used to make a variation of this soup, but this version kicked that memory up a notch and will be my new go-to recipe! Thanks so much!
I love hearing about when recipes remind you of a family member or family dish! Thank you ๐
Subbed the tomatoes for a can of Rotel and added 1/2 tbsp of chili powder. We love it!
Sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing.
Made this tonight with only sub as ground turkey. Delish!! Husband also a big fan and already requested to put it on the list to make again ๐ thanks for sharing!
Yay! Iโm so glad it was a hit! Thanks for commenting ๐
Awesome flavor and for the amount of calories, it is a filling meal!
I love the flavor in this soup! Iโm glad youโre a fan!
This is a good soup and easy to make!
Iโm glad you like it!
Could I sub a box of roasted tomato non condensed soup ?
Flavor wise that would work- Iโm just wondering what it would mean for the liquid content in the soup. If it is quite a few more ounces than 10 than I would reduce how much beef broth you add. Let me know how it turns out!
Delicious on a cold New England day! It was a hit with my family. Thanks for another great recipe.
Not too many things are better than soup on a cold day. โบ๏ธ Youโre so welcome!
Can you use noodles instead of potatoes?
That should work. I would suggest adding them later in the cooking process so they donโt become mushy and watch that the liquid amount doesnโt get too low.
Love this easy soup, perfect for a cool fall day!
Thank you! Glad it brought some comfort on a fall day.
This recipe reminds me of a stew my grandmother would make every Saturday. The only difference is that my grandmother would use all the leftover food from the week and dump it into a stew pot, and let it simmer for half a day and it was always so good! Since there really was no actually recipe for the stew, after she passed away, my dad and I struggled to figure out on our own what made her stew so good. This recipe gave us a great base recipe and that’s when more memories came back and we remembered some of the variations, like instead of beef sometimes she would use shredded chicken and instead of potatoes she would use egg noodles, and chicken broth. She always used a variety of veggies, those changed weekly, again, depending on what veggies they had eaten during the week. My daughter absolutely LOVES this stew. She asks for it all the time, even in the middle of the summer, when it’s 100 degrees outside, LOL. I cook mine on the stove and once it has simmered for 30 minutes, especially if I prepare it in the morning and won’t be home most of the day, I transfer it to my crockpot and keep it on either low or keep warm and the flavors are just perfect!
That is so sweet, thank you for your comment. ๐๐ป I love hearing when recipes help to bring back a family memory or help to make more. โค๏ธ
Absolutely delicious!!! I didnโt change a thing about this recipe and it is always a massive hit with my family of 6. We pair it with homemade cornbread and everyone always gets a second bowl.
Soup is such a comfort food and usually a pretty cheap one as well. I can really appreciate the easy yet tasty, nutritious ingredients in this one.
Two thumbs up and 5 stars!!!
I LOVE soup with cornbread! Thank you for your kind review ๐ฅฐ
I put it together this morning. It smell great. Will fix a pan of corn bread later. Yum yum
Perfect meal!
excellent
This is so good! I have made it several times now and change nothing!
Thank you for sharing!
The small central school I attended in the 60โs and 70โs had a crew of โlunch ladiesโ that made all the school lunches. One of my favorites was their hamburger soup. This recipe is the exact replica of that soup!
I love that. So happy you love the soup.
I love this recipe. Itโs quick, makes a lot of soup and, itโs super yummy!
Loaded this delicious soup with veggies. Loved it & will definitely be making it lots.
Delish. Taste like mamas recipe. Thank you for sharing.
it was marvelous. Thank you so much.
Absolutely the best soup Iโve ever had.
Thank you.
You’re very welcome! Thank you for being here and letting me know you love the recipe.
This soup is my new go to hamburger soup! Easy and yummy! The only change I made was to substitute Rotel for the diced tomatoes and thatโs just because I like a little spice in my soup! Thank You for this recipe!
