The Everything Soup

November 19, 2015

This dish was among the first recipes my mom taught me. Maybe it’s because she knew there was no way for me to mess it up, or maybe it’s because she knew that I would spend my entire paycheck buying extra lives on Candy Crush that I would need a meal that could be made on a budget, but either way, this is one of the simplest and heartiest soups I’ve made. I’ve since seen multiple variations of this recipe, which only shows how versatile and easy it is to customize this dish!

Start by browning onions and garlic in olive oil, then add ground beef or turkey and cook until no longer pink. Then simply add cans of minestrone, ranch style beans, diced tomatoes, Ro*tel, and a few seasonings. Simmer for 25-30 minutes, serve with a slice of crusty French bread, and you’ve got yourself a delicious, inexpensive, and comforting fall meal with plenty of Candy Crush lives to spare. Enjoy!

  • We’re warming up this Tuesday with this hearty beef stew. The best part? You can throw it in your slow cooker and let it do all the work for you! I find that many crockpot recipes result in meals that have similar tastes and textures, but this beef is melt-in-your-mouth tender, those red potatoes and carrots are cooked well, and the broth is flavorful. We’ll be making this one again and again!
