Hamburger Soup

This soup is easy to make and is flavorful full of veggies and herbs

In this bowl are most but not all of the veggies I added:

• 1 cup of diced onion
• 1 medium size carrot, chopped
• 1 small yellow squash, cut in half moons
• 1 large celery stalk, diced
• 2 cups frozen corn (I prepped earlier in the season)
• 4 medium baby portabella mushrooms
• 1 1/2 lbs ground beef
• 14 small garlic cloves, whole
• 3 sprigs of dill
• 5 sprigs of thyme
• 1/4 cup chopped parsley
• 1 tablespoon Beef Base (diluted in 2 cups of warm water)
• 6 cups water
• 1 teaspoon Mrs. Dash Original (salt substitute)
• 1 teaspoon Paul Prudhomme's Magic Seasoning Blend - Toasted Onion & Garlic
• 2 teaspoons of fresh cracked black pepper

Ground beef 90% lean, sauteed, drained and removed from pot

In the same pot, sauteed all the veggies and herbs 

Add Beef Base (2 cups) + 8 additional cups of water then add all the seasoning. Bring to boil then lower to simmer for 45 minutes.

Dress with some fresh parsley and a couple of dashes of hot sauce, enjoy with crusty bread or just on it's own.
