A hearty and flavorful Beefy Tomato Soup made with ground beef, crushed tomatoes, and aromatic seasonings. Perfect for a comforting meal, this soup combines savory beef broth with Italian herbs and is garnished with fresh basil or parsley for an added fresh touch.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brown the Beef and Aromatics: In a large pot over medium heat, add the ground beef, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Cook until the beef is browned and the onions are translucent, breaking up the meat with a spoon. Drain any excess fat to keep the soup from being greasy.
  2. Add Liquids and Seasonings: Stir in the crushed tomatoes, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine all the flavors.
  3. Simmer the Soup: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer gently for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the soup to thicken slightly.
  4. Serve and Garnish: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired. Serve hot for a comforting meal.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use homemade beef broth.
  • You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
  • Add diced carrots or celery for extra vegetables and texture.
  • Adjust the seasoning according to your taste; a pinch of red pepper flakes can add a nice kick.
  • Serve with crusty bread or grilled cheese sandwiches for a complete meal.
