This Vegetable Beef Soup is one of my kids most requested recipes when it does come to soup.
They absolutely love it, they love all the vegetables and the meat, it has pretty much all you need in one large pot!
HOW TO STORE:
This soup can be store in the refrigerator in an airtight container, we usually use a Tupperware container and should last about 3-4 days.
This can also be frozen, my recommendation is if you are making it to freeze and not serve right away then undercook your vegetables.
That way when reheating the soup the potatoes won’t be mushy or fall apart. If you have leftovers you can freeze, just bring to temperature slowly when reheating.
This can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
- Petite diced tomatoes or regular diced tomatoes both work for this recipe depending on how small you like your tomatoes in the soup.
- Use any type of potatoes you like, we regularly use russet for this recipe.
- Fresh vegetables can be used instead of frozen, a mixture equaling about 1 lb, but would increase the cooking time slightly to make sure they are cooked through.
- Substitute the Worcestershire sauce for balsamic vinegar, we love the little tang that it gives the recipe and have done this multiple times.
- You can also stir in some cooked macaroni noodles to make this a Beefy Vegetable Noodle Soup!
- This recipe can be frozen, see my tips above.

I have made this recipe many times the past couple of years. So good and so easy to make. I don’t usually have tomato soup on hand so I have subbed an 8 oz. can of tomato sauce, and added a tsp. of garlic powder with it. It gives the soup a beautiful, rich, deep color. I also add half a bag of baby Lima beans, my favorite. Great recipes for rainy day lunches or cool evening meals.

Super simple recipe with great flavor. We have made this several times in the last few months. We usually use stew meat that we cut up into small pieces instead of ground beef, but otherwise follow the recipe. We put all ingredients into the slow cooker and put it in the refrigerator the night before. Helps make dinner very easy to prepare the next day — just plug in the slow cooker and let it go while we work. Great recipe.

This Vegetable Beef Soup is delicious and easy to make! I added a bit of Kikkoman Ponzu Citrus Seasoned Dressing & Sauce for a more flavorful taste. Best paired with my favorite Cold Barley Tea.
