I grew up eating vegetable beef soup, although there was never a recipe. It has taken me years to develop this recipe, through trial and error, of course. I started adding sugar after eating Mom Burgess' soup because that is how she made it and it does make a difference. I started adding ketchup after tasting the school's recipe and liking the way it tasted. So, this soup is ever evolving, enjoy, add your own flavors and make it your own.
