Easy hamburger soup made in just one pot in 30 quick minutes! It's loaded with lean ground beef, mixed vegetables, tomatoes and seasonings and is budget-friendly, hearty and satisfying.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the hamburger. Once lightly browned, discard any extra grease. Stir in the onions, carrots, celery, and potatoes and cook 2 more minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more.
Add in the broth, tomatoes, water, balsamic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Add in green beans. Cover and simmer 10 minutes, or until potatoes are fork tender.
Salt and pepper, to taste. Ladle into bowls and serve warm.
Notes
Freeze: Transfer into a freezer bag or an airtight container, leaving about an inch of room from the top so the soup has room to expand. Store in the freezer up to 2 months. To thaw, place in the fridge overnight. Then reheat in a pot on the stove until warm. You can add in a little broth or water to thin it out if needed.
