❤️ Why you will love this recipe
30 minute meal: This easy hamburger soup recipe is ready in just 30 minutes and makes 4 generous servings!
Veggie packed: Hamburger soup is packed with plenty of frozen veggies and bring warmth on a chilly day.
Versatile: this recipe that can also be made in the slow cooker or instant pot.
🥘 Ingredients
Lean ground beef: For this hamburger soup, I like to use an 85/15 ratio of hamburger meat. It adds flavor without adding too much fat.
Yellow onion, garlic cloves, salt, and black pepper: for flavor
Diced tomatoes and beef broth: are pantry staples that add to flavor and texture.
Frozen vegetables:I like to use frozen mixed vegetables for ease and they fiber to the soup, as well as extra bulk.
Italian seasoning: is added for flavor.
Bay leaf: is added while the soup is simmering and removed before serving.
🔪 Instructions
- In a large pot over medium-high heat, saute 1 pound of ground beef with the onion, garlic, salt, and pepper, breaking the meat as it cooks, until the beef is browned. Drain any excess fat from beef.
- Stir in the tomatoes, better than bouillon, vegetables, and hot water. Bring to a boil then reduce to medium heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Add the Italian seasoning. Simmer for 10 minutes.
🥄Equipment
Soup pot: at least a 4 quart sized pot should be used.
Meat chopper: this is an excellent tool to use to break up and stir the ground beef.
Chef knife: for chopping the onions and garlic.
Soup ladle for serving from the pot to the bowl.
I love these white soup bowls!
🥫 Storage
Refrigerate: stored in an airtight container up to 1 week.
Freeze: store in a freezer-safe airtight container for up to 3 months.
Reheat: gently reheat soup in a large pot on the stove top or in a microwave safe bowl in the microwave until warmed through.
📖 Variations
- Substitute 1-8 ounce can of tomato sauce for the tomatoes and spice the soup up a teaspoon of chili powder.
- Spice the soup up a teaspoon of chili powder.
- Add some extra fiber to the soup and stir in a can of white beans or kidney beans.
- Add 1 cup cooked barley for added bulk and fiber.
💭 Tips
- If you have leftover potatoes, dice them and add them to the soup or add ½ cup of dry pasta such as elbow macaroni for to make it even heartier.
- For a thicker soup, add 1 tablespoon of tomato paste.

I don't know if you've seen Arrested Development, but the first part of this post reminded me of "hot ham water" and I cracked up.
