Elaine's Sirloin Burger Soup

ElaineAnn's Note:

Really chilly day yesterday got me thinking about soup, so I threw this together when I got home from work. The steak seasoning is imperative to the taste. If you can't find it in your area there are several good recipes for a substitute on 'Zaar. Reviews have stated "too much noodles" so I have edited to use only 4 ounces.

• Total Time: 1 hrs 10 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 1 hrs

Ingredients:

Servings: 6

• 1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine
• 1 lb ground sirloin
• 1 small onion , diced
• 1 teaspoon McCormick's Montreal Brand steak seasoning
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 cup water
• 4 cups beef broth
• 1 cup v 8 vegetable juice
• 8 baby carrots , sliced thin
• 2 medium red potatoes , peeled and diced
• 4 ounces fine egg noodles

Directions:

1. Cook ground sirloin and onions in butter in large saucepan, stirring to break up as small as possible for about 5 minutes, until meat is no longer pink.
2. Sprinkle steak seasoning and Worcestershire sauce over meat and continue stirring until meat browns.
3. Pour in water, scraping up brown bits from bottom of pan. Add broth, vegetable juice, and vegetables. Bring to boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 45 minutes.
4. Return to boil, break up noodles into soup, stir well.
5. Reduce heat to simmer, and cook for 10 more minutes.

The steak seasoning adds a depth of flavor to a quick and easy soup. I felt that the 8 ounces of egg noodles was way too much; I probably used 4 ounces which seemed to be more than enough.

Yummy soup! The only change I made was to cook the noodles separate because they soak up all the juice.

I enjoyed this soup very much. Didn't have any fine egg noodles, so I added the noodles from 2 packets of Ramen noodle soup. With a little addition of salt, it turned out very tastee. Thanks so much for this simple to prepare and delish soup.
