Hamburger soup is my go-to comfort food because it’s so customizable. You can toss in whatever veggies you have on hand, like zucchini, green beans, corn, or mushrooms, making it a healthy choice with lots of flavor. It’s meaty and hearty and just hits the spot every time.
You’ll need ground beef, plenty of veggies, tomato juice, and herbs to whip up a batch. It’s basically a soup version of a clean-out-the-fridge meal. Serve it with some crusty bread or a grilled cheese sandwich for a satisfying meal.
