Ingredients

  • 1 pound Ground Beef
  • 1 Yellow Onion, Chopped
  • 2 stalks Celery, Chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 1 can (28 Oz. Size) Whole Tomatoes
  • 2 Red Peppers, Stem And Seeds Removed, Chopped
  • 6 cups Beef Broth
  • 4 Carrots, Peeled And Chopped
  • 1/3 heads Cabbage, Finely Chopped
  • 4 Potatoes, Cut Into Cubes
  • 8 ounces, fluid Tomato Sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoons Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoons Pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon Parsley Flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoons Oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoons Cayenne Pepper

Method

  • In a large pot over medium-high heat, brown the meat with the onion, celery and garlic. Remove the pot from the heat and drain off as much fat as you can.
  • Return the pot to the heat and add the rest of the ingredients. Stir to combine, then bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, then cover the pot and simmer the soup for 15-20 more minutes, until potatoes are tender but not overly mushy.
  • Soup should be somewhat thick, but if you'd like it to be more "soupy" add 1 to 2 cups more broth or hot water and heat through. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more salt if needed.
