Made this yesterday and it was delicious! I cut the recipe in half for the two of us and added some roasted garlic and like Annacia I added some Italian seasoning. Yummo! I definately will make this again. It is so comforting and warming on a cool day. Thank you for a delicious recipe. Made for Zaar Alphabet Soup tag game.

It's a keeper. I just knew that this was going to be very good so I made the full recipe for just two people and have 3 bags in the freezer :D. I added some pureed roast garlic, Italian seasoning and half of a green bell pepper that was in the fridge. I used veggie crumbles for the ground beef and it worked perfectly. Made for *Partying The Diabetic Way*

Very good soup. If you have leftover beef, you can use that instead the ground beef. I agree that a little garlic couldn't hurt. :) -
