Hamburger Soup

6 servings
prep time: 15 minutes (chop veggies while meat browns)
cook time: 15 minutes additional

• 1 lb. ground beef or turkey
• 1 can (~15 oz.) tomatoes (any kind)
• 3 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
• 3 medium potatoes, cleaned, chopped (no need to peel)
• 2 stalks celery, chopped
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 3-4 cups beef broth (or water with bouillon)
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/8 tsp. pepper
• 1/4 tsp. oregano

1. In a large saucepan, brown meat on medium heat. Drain fat.
2. Add all other ingredients.
3. Add enough broth to cover vegetables well.
4. Bring to a boil, cover, then lower heat to just bubbling and cook 15 minutes.

Variations:
Use a large (28 oz.) can of tomatoes if you like a more tomato-y flavor.
Substitute any veggies of your choice, aiming for about 6 cups of chopped veggies total.
Chicken broth is better with ground turkey.
