Notes

  • How can this get any easier? This is a 5 ingredient hamburger vegetable soup---ground beef, onions, potatoes, V8 juice and frozen vegetables.  The result is warm, hearty and delicious. 
  • It is very important to season the ground beef for easy hamburger vegetable soup as it browns.  We use about 1 teaspoon of salt and a 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.  Be sure to taste the vegetable hamburger soup right before serving too to see if it needs any more salt and pepper. 
  • For our vegetable soup with ground beef, we use Original V8 juice, but if you flavor, go with the spicy version.
  • The best part of making a hamburger vegetable soup with V8 juice is that you are getting all the tomato flavor and extra servings of vegetables. 
  • In order to get the vegetable soup with hamburger to all cook at the same rate, dice the potatoes small to match the size of the frozen mixed vegetables.
  • We use mixed vegetables with corn, carrots, peas and green beans because that's what our kids like the best, but you can use whatever frozen vegetables you prefer.  Lima beans would be a nice addition, or add a second bag of corn or peas or whatever your heart desires. 
  • Hamburger vegetable soup with potatoes gets even tastier as it sits in the fridge.  Try making a double batch and eating it for several meals throughout the week. 
  • We've been known to use Bloody Mary mix in soups and entrees too. Try our Bloody Mary Beef Vegetable Soup and Bloody Mary Lasagna
