Vegetable Hamburger Soup / Stew

Submitted by Kat's Mom

"Is it a stew or soup? You decide. This is delicious & healthy and easy to make and tastes even better the next day. I use low-salt canned vegetables whenever possible. You can change out some of the ingredients to suit your family�s taste and what is on sale. This is my recipe inspired by recipe #195266 by Chef #381241. A great way to s-t-r-e-t-c-h your budget!"

I used ground beef and beef broth instead of the water. I also didn't add the kidney beans and used potatoes. I enjoyed this. The longer it sat the better it tasted.
