Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef or turkey for a healthier option
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables or any vegetables on hand
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot, sauté the ground beef over medium heat until it’s nicely browned (about 5-7 minutes).
  2. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent (about 3 minutes).
  3. Pour in the beef broth and bring to a boil. Add diced potatoes and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, until tender.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and frozen vegetables, allowing to simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

If you want a thicker soup, use an immersion blender to blend some of the soup or mash a few potatoes. You can also add any leftover vegetables such as carrots or peas. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, reheating gently on the stove.
