Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 15 ounce can tomato sauce
  • 5 cups water
  • 12 ounces frozen mixed vegetables
  • 1 Tablespoon dry minced onion
  • ½ cup alphabet pasta
  • Salt & black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large pot, brown ground beef until cooked through; drain any excess grease.

  • Add frozen vegetables; simmer 10 minutes.
  • Stir in alphabet pasta; cook 8–10 minutes longer, until pasta is tender.

Farm Girl Tips

  • Substitute small pasta shapes if you can’t find alphabet pasta.
  • For richer flavor, swap 2 cups of the water for beef broth.
  • Soup thickens as it sits—add a splash of water or broth when reheating.

This is a perfect recipe to double up and freeze soup in mason jars. The next time a soup craving hits, defrost from the freezer and heat it up!
