Quickie Soup Recipe...

Okay, I'm no chef. But I still have to contribute to the daily meal plan, right? So soups are a fav of mine because they're hard(er) to screw up. This one is a pleaser all the way around.

Hamburger Soup

1 pound hamburger
1/2 small onion, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1 potato, diced
1 (500ml) can of Crushed Tomatoes
2 beef bouillon cubes
4 cups of hot water
salt to taste
pepper to taste
* I also add peas and corn to mine, but this is a bare bones recipe*

Brown hamburger, drain. Add to pot with onions, carrots, potato, salt and pepper. Saute veggies and meat for 2-3 min. Add hot water and bouillon (I mix the bouillon and water first, then add). Stir well. Add crushed tomatoes and bring to simmer until root veggies are tender (30-45 min depending on your stove and temp). Stir often. Voila!
