Instructions
- Cook Ground Beef: Add olive oil to the Dutch oven and heat over medium. Add onion and garlic and saute for 1-2 minutes. Add ground beef and crumble with a wooden spoon while it cooks. Cook until all of the ground beef is cooked and no longer pink, about 7 minutes. Drain excess fat.

- Simmer: Turn up the heat and bring to a simmer. Let simmer for 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
- Enjoy!
Notes
Storage
Fridge: Store in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.
Freezer: Let the soup completely cool and then store in freezer-safe containers for up to 3 months.
Substitutions
Vegetables: Use your favorites! Just be sure they are chopped evenly. If adding tender greens like spinach or kale, add in the final 5-10 minutes of simmering.
Potatoes: Use your favorites!
Herbs: Use fresh for dried, 1 tablespoon fresh for 1 teaspoon dried.
Cooking Larger Potatoes
We like to keep our potatoes nice and small so that they cook faster, but if you prefer much larger pieces of potatoes in your soup, then add the potatoes and stock first, simmer for 10 minutes, and then add veggies and simmer for another 15 minutes.
Crock Pot Option
Make this soup in your crock pot by browning ground beef with onions and garlic first. Add it to the crock pot and then add everything else. Cook on low for 3-4 hours.
