How to Make Awesome Hamburger Soup

  1. In a large stockpot, brown 1 lb of ground chuck over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 2 stalks celery (chopped), and 1 cup carrots (chopped) to the pot. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 4 cups beef broth, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour.
  5. Add 1 cup uncooked long-grain rice.
  6. Continue to simmer for another 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and the soup has thickened slightly.
  7. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional) before serving and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
