Farmhouse Hamburger Soup {Pinterest Success 35}

 

 

 

These brutally cold temperatures we are experiencing have kept me at home, because being outside when it is below zero is no fun. I did make a trip to the grocery store on this past Saturday, one of the coldest days, but I wanted to get the ingredients for a hearty soup we could enjoy that night. This recipe for Farmhouse Hamburger Soup has been on my Crockpot Pinterest board for some time, but a cold winter day seemed the perfect time to try it. The original pin and recipe can be found here.

This is a quick, versatile recipe that can be prepared either on the stove or in the crockpot. Since I was getting a late start, I prepared in on the stove and after simmering for about one hour the vegetables were tender. I made a few changes that I think added to the flavor; I used Yukon Gold potatoes with the skins on, I did not use baby carrots, but regular sliced carrots instead and I added a bit of Tabasco sauce for a slight spice. Really though, you could add any kind of vegetables, fresh or canned, and the flavor would only get better. We enjoyed this soup very much and I would make it again, especially in the winter months.

Happy Thursday!
