Hamburger Vegetable Soup

I, too, shied away from using all the onion soup mix. I doubled the recipe, but didn't change the amount of soup mix - and I'm glad I did. To avoid soggy noodles, I cooked the macaroni separately and served the soup over it. A simple and tasty soup - I will definitely be making it again.

I did make a few changes. To me it would have tasted too plain with no extra seasonings and 4 cups of water. I didn't have ground beef so I used chicken instead but this was the perfect base recipe I was looking for. I wanted the flavor of hamburger soup with chicken instead. I used one onion packet and half a beefy onion packet mixed w 2 cups water. I added potatoes right away and added frozen veggies later. I made some changes to taste, I added: a can of diced tomatoes, left out the water and the onion, then I added paprika, lemon pepper, a splash of lemon juice, pepper, red pepper flakes, garlic and celery salt. it came out perfectly. I kmow everyone has their own preferences and this is the perfect recipe to taste every now and then and add more seasoning based on what you like. I personally think the diced tomatoes and lemon juice really set it off!

Instead of pasta I used sweet and golden potatoes and it was delicious yum

added more shells and cheese than called for. the 5 year old loved it.

I am a pescatarian, so I used vegan crumbles instead of ground beef. Smells good and tastes great. I have plenty for other winter days. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Loved it and everyone who ate it as well loved it
