Ingredients

• Ground beef. I used extra lean ground beef. Use any type of ground meat you have.
• Vegetables. I used frozen mixed vegetables (green beans, corn, peas, carrots). These precut small vegetables add lots of color to the soup. If you plan to use other types of vegetables, cut them small.
• Onion and garlic. It adds lots of flavors to the soup.
• Oats. I used rolled oat, which cooks faster to thicken up the soup. It adds a creamy texture to the soup.
• Broth. I used veggie broth. Use what you have on hand. You may even use plain water.
• Oil. As needed. I used avocado oil to saute onion and sear ground beef.
• Herbs. I used mint, cilantro, and parsley. This combination makes the best ground beef vegetable soup. But use any other herbs (chive, oregano, dill) you like the most.
• Tumeric. It adds beautiful yellow color and health benefits.
• Seasonings. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Lemon for serving

Instructions

Add oil to skillet and saute chopped onion and garlic over medium-high heat until soft and slightly browned.

Take the sauteed onion and garlic out and put them aside. Then, sear the ground meat until no red ground beef is left.

Add sauteed onion, garlic, and ground beef to a pot. Next, add frozen vegetables and rolled oats to the pot.

Add in dry mint, turmeric, salt, and pepper.

Pour the broth into the pot and mix everything.

Place the pot over medium-high heat and bring it to a boil.

Once the soup starts to boil, lower the heat to medium-low and cover the pot with a lid. Let the soup simmer for 45 minutes.

Turn the soup off and add in chopped cilantro and parsley.

At this point, adjust the seasonings to your taste. Serve it hot with fresh lemon. ENJOY!

Tips and tricks

• Saute the onion and garlic. This will brings out their sweetness and flavors. Make sure not to burn them.
• Brown the ground beef. Just enough to sear the meat and brown it. Do not overcook it.
• Make a double batch. You will never have enough of this soup.
• Cut vegetables small and evenly. So that they all cook fast and at the same time.
• I make this soup thick. You can add more broth to make it thinner. Soups, in general, thicken up as they cool down!
• Feel free to add your favorite spices and herbs.

Substitutions and variations to this recipe

• Use any other vegetables or ground meat. Celery, eggplant, zucchini, or cabbage. Ground turkey or chicken breast.

You can saute it all in the pot instead so that fewer dishes to clean.

I cooked this soup recipe in an 8-quart pot.

Store leftover soup in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge and 3 months in the freezer. Freeze it in individual servings in freezer safe bag and thaw it the night before, and heat it on the stovetop or microwave it.

I served it as a main course for dinner with some fresh lemon. You may serve it with sour cream, diced avocado, or toasted bread cubes. Serve it with a fresh season or spring salad.
