If you need a filling meal with ingredients you probably have on hand this Hamburger Soup will fit the bill.
I love having some of this on hand because it makes such a nice filling meal.
There are no strong spices or flavours going on here which makes this recipe great for kids or a broad audience. If you are into spicy heat you will have to drizzle some hot sauce on this after.
It is so thick it is almost a stew. You could reduce the broth if you want it to be more of stew texture.
This is everyday comfort food and can feed 6 people well for less than $15.
It tastes great accompanied by these Buttery Garlic Buns.
It may taste even better the 2nd day so feel free to make it ahead of time. It will keep 2-3 days in the fridge.
