"This recipe came from a real-estate newsletter we used to get 30 years ago. It has been a favorite recipe for my family ever since. I have since changed to using ground Turkey. And it is still great."

I love Hamburger soup. I wanted to try a different kind and there are many to try. I started off with no changes. However, I did not think there was enough liquid. So I added a 1/2 cup water and 1/2 beef broth. I increased the basil to 1/2t and added a squirt of ketchup. It was yummy. I love the addition of the rice and potatoes. This was great cset!
