Hamburger Soup
January 10, 2018
This soup recipe is a classic comfort food, but ingredients were chosen for a healthier and satisfying variety.
I like to double the recipe for leftovers to have for cold winter lunches.
Getting extra lean ground beef makes this lower in fat, but you could use ground turkey or even ground chicken!

Looks and sounds real good.
Going to give this a try.
That is comfort food for these cold winter nights. I am going to try it.
I followed the quantities prescribed above which did indeed yield quite a bit, enough for a week for one person. The end consistency is rather like chili than soup, so if soup is desired, add more broth and perhaps actual tomatoes instead of the paste.
I used chorizo beef which made this spicy and a good compliment to the sweet potato.
I tried it but also added a can of mixed beans for the texture.
Mmmm yes love that! Good fiber too!
Great idea!
