Mom used to make this for hubby and I when we would travel to visit since it was filling and could be ready and waiting for us. I've experimented with her recipe and come up with a few variations this is our favorite.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound hamburger or chopped meat
  • 1 small white onion, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1-2 package frozen mixed veggies
  • 3 tablespoons knorr tomato bouillon
  • 1 cup hearty macaroni, dry
  • 1-2 teaspoon each-dry-- basil, oregano, parsley, rosemary, and any other herbs you like

How To Make hamburger soup

  • Step 1
    Into a stock pot place the minced onion in the oil and butter to cook til tender; add the meat and brown, stirring in the garlic. Add water to cover. Stir in the tomato bouillon and any herbs you wish to add. Cook over a med heat for 20 mins
  • Step 2
    After the meat and spices have cooked for the 20 mins add frozen veggies and more water if necessary. (Reminder- if you need to add water check your broth you may need to add more of the bouillon).
  • Step 3
    20 min's before dinner time add the macaroni and stir to make sure the macaroni doesn't sink and stick, stir occasionally til macaroni is done. Just before serving add a teaspoon of butter and a little of any herbs and/or spices you used.
  • Step 4
    We like to have this with fresh crescent rolls that I'll add a half of a slice of cheese before rolling.
  • Step 5
    I've made this soup adding beef gravy mix for more of a beef flavor. Try also: add fresh diced tomato just before serving for more sweetness - add sour cream for more of a tang - add shredded cheese for saltiness and creaminess
