Project: Vegetable Beef Soup

One of the BEST dishes I can recall eating as a child was my mom's Vegetable Beef Soup.

I loved it on a frosty night or on a warm and breezy day. No matter the reason or the season, it hits the spot and is a crowd-pleaser for both cook and consumer.

This recipe is:

1. EASY to make.

2. EASY on the wallet. (It has only a few ingredients that are available in every grocery store. Plus, you'll   probably have leftovers for the following day. This soup is ALWAYS better the next day!)

3. EASY on the time sensitive chefs. (Takes less than 45 minutes from prep to completion.)

Lorraine Hayen-Hilton's Vegetable Beef Soup:

1 package hamburger.

1 small onion (diced)

1 bag frozen mixed veggies

2 cups frozen cut okra

3 Tablespoons ketchup

1 box of beef broth

1/2 cup red wine (any brand is fine)

1 dash of worcestershire sauce

1 can (large) of diced tomatoes

3 dashes on basil, oregano, parsley

In a large pot, brown the hamburger and onion together. Turn your temperature to medium heat and add the remaining ingredients. Stir occasionally. When the vegetables are tender and the taste is to your liking, YOU. ARE. DONE. :)
