Vegetable Beef Soup
This homemade Vegetable Beef Soup is not only delicious but extremely healthy! With only eight simple ingredients, this soup is easy to make and will become your new go-to dinner.

I grew up eating this. It was perfect all year long but during the winters, it was the perfect dinner after a long day! The flavors are comforting and warm that always leave you wanting another bite.
When I was little, my mom grew a lot of the food we ate. Corn, okra, berries, pears, nuts, tomatoes, beans, etc. It was a garden that always changed but always had a few staples. During the summers, we’d go and pick the food needed for this soup and make it.
But during the winter, the cold came along and killed our garden. So, we’d use frozen veggies as a substitute. It still worked and tasted just as good!
It really doesn’t matter if you have access to fresh veggies or frozen, you can always make this soup and have a delicious meal everyone will love!
How to make vegetable soup
With ease! Once the prep work is done, all you have to do is dump all of the ingredients (except the pasta) into a large stock pot. Yep. It’s really that simple.
Let this cook for about three hours and you’re pretty much done! What we like to do is spoon however much we’re going to eat for dinner into a smaller pot, add whatever pasta we have on hand, and let that cook for a few more minutes. We freeze the rest of the pot so we always have some on hand.
You can easily add enough pasta for the entire pot. There is no exact measurement for this so, add as much or as little pasta as you’d like!
Is vegetable soup vegan?
This version is technically not vegan or vegetarian. BUT you can substitute vegetable broth for the beef stock and leave out the stew beef and have an amazing soup for everyone!

Can you freeze vegetable soup?
Absolutely! As I said earlier, we always freeze this soup because it makes so much! We prefer to leave the pasta out when freezing because cooking pasta twice is just… eh.
With that in mind, go on ahead! You can always add pasta and cook the pasta once the soup thaws.

Expert Tips:
- This soup can be made with fresh or frozen vegetables. Each 1-3/4 cup measurement will be a 15 ounce bag.
- If you want to make this soup vegetarian or vegan, use vegetable stock and leave out the stew beef.
