Hamburger Soup!

Do you ever have one lonely hamburger left over after a barbecue or hamburger night? That's all you need for this recipe.  Just freeze any left over, cooked hamburger patties and you will be ready to make this meal, anytime you desire.

This recipe is perfect for a rainy night when you want to make a meal without having to run out to the store.  It's great on a budget too, or when you want to clean out the fridge or pantry!  Note that you can make this soup with numerous substitutions ... depending on what you have on hand.

Bonus:  Kids absolutely love this soup.
You will need:
2 c beef broth
2 c chicken broth
2 carrots
2 stalks celery
1/2 c chopped yellow onion
  (or 1 tbsp dried minced onion)
1/2 tin lima beans (drained) *
1/2 tin kernel corn (drained) (or 1 c frozen)
  (or 1 cob boiled)
1/2 tin baked beans
1 tin diced tomatoes OR condensed tomato soup
1 frozen cooked hamburger patty

few leafs of chopped sage (or 1 tsp dried)
small handful of chopped rosemary (or 2 tsps dried)


THRIFTY TIP: Freeze or refrigerate remaining portions of tinned lima beans, corn and baked beans for future use.

*Lima Beans? My kid loves them which is why they are included. But you could substitute any legume you prefer such as kidney or scarlet runner beans.


Recipe for your own baked beans here: comfy-baked-beans.html
What you do:
Heat broth in a dutch oven and add chopped carrots, celery and onion.  Add frozen, cooked hamburger patty to the mixture.  Bring to a boil and simmer.  When the patty and vegetables soften, remove patty and cut into small chunks.  Return to pot. Then add fresh or dried herbs, tinned beans and corn.  Add the tin of drained diced tomatoes or tomato soup (do not add extra water).  Simmer for 15 minutes.

This recipe is not exact! Alter quantities to taste or adjust to availability of ingredients in your garden, fridge or pantry.


Substitutions:
  • 1 cup of ground beef browned and seasoned with salt and pepper in place of a frozen hamburger patty.
  • Beef or chicken bouillon cubes or sachets to make broth in the quantities needed.
  • Left-over tomato soup in place of tinned; just adjust the amount of water/broth needed.

Disclaimer: Many of the items sold are vintage or pre-loved. Quality of vintage items vary with the manufacturing methods available at the time of production. They are not made to current standards of manufacturing ... and in my opinion, that is usually a good thing! They tend to be higher quality, last longer and include more attention to detail than today's products. However, safety standards do change over time, items do deteriorate with age, and it is up to the customer to decide how they will use each product.
