"A delicious conglomerate of beef and vegetables in a rich tomato soup. I made this regularly when my kids were growing up. We ate a lot of ground beef because it was economical. This was an invention of mine while looking for another way to cook hamburger. I served it with cornbread or crackers. It was great!"

My Husband and I really enjoyed this recipe. It was easy to put together and absolutely delicious! I omitted the celery and green pepper and used 2 cans of mixed vegetables instead of the individual vegetables. And I only used 1 teaspoon salt instead of 2. It was very good and I will be making it again many times. Thank you for the recipe !!

I used about 1 lb. of hamburger and 1/2 lb. of sausage I had leftover. I used frozen vegetables instead of canned and added a little seasoned salt. I also skipped the potatoes but added a can of pinto beans. I added a little celery seed and skipped the celery because no one in the house likes to eat it much and I hate to buy celery for one stalk! This soup was very yummy! I have got plenty in the freezer now for future dinners. Thank you for sharing!

This recipe took me right back to my childhood. My mom used to make a soup very similar to this, and the basic flavor of this is right on the money. I did make a few changes...No celery, since DH doesn't like it, though I did add in a pinch of celery seed. Also, I used beef stock in place of the tomato sauce and bullion cubes, and added a can of tomato paste to intensify the tomato flavor. Finally, I used frozen vegetables rather than canned. Really tasty, economical, and nutritious comfort food that hubby & I really enjoy. Thanks so much for bringing back this fond memory!

This is a good recipe that makes a lot of soup. I have a family of 6 and we have plenty of leftovers for another meal(and then some probably). I did use fresh garlic, crushed while browning the meat. I omitted the green pepper and added in sliced cabbage. I also served this over some leftover macaroni noodles and omitted the potato because of this. To make this even more economical, I only used 1/2 lb. of ground beef and no one in my family complained. Thanks for sharing this one, it is definitely a food budget stretcher! =-)

I love to cook. I love to browse through old recipe books. Especially from the "South".I am currently gathering old recipes to put in a cook book I am making for family and friends. I want recipes that our mothers, grandmothers, aunts, neighbors, etc used to cook. Recipes that our young people have no idea how to make. If you have a favorite recipe that came from an older relative or friend, feel free to pass it on to me at: oldrecipes@hotmail.com. I would love to have it and will acknowledge your name and the name of the relative or friend. I am thinking of naming the cook book "Recipes of our Ancestors". If you have a suggtestion, you can send me that, too. oldrecipes@hotmail.comI am disabled, so have plenty of time to spend with my nose in a cook book, or on the internet. I really enjoy cooking and love to see people eat and enjoy themselves. The thing I hate the most (pet peeve) is for someone to come to the stove while I am cooking and take pieces of what I am cooking before I am ready to serve it. AND, I do NOT want someone adding anything to my pot. Other than these two, I enjoy being in the kitchen and having company in the kitchen while I am cooking. Conversation and fellowship go hand in hand with a good cook.
