How to Make Bestest Hamburger Soup
- Brown 1 lb ground beef in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp dried basil, 1 tsp seasoned salt, and 1 packet onion soup mix. Stir to combine.
- Pour in 8 cups boiling water, 1 (28 ounce) can tomato sauce, and 2 tbsp soy sauce. Stir well.
- Cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
- While the soup simmers, prepare 2 cups chopped celery, 1/2 cup chopped celery leaves, and 1 cup chopped carrots.
- Add the prepared vegetables, 1 cup split peas, to the simmering soup. Continue to cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in 1 cup elbow macaroni. Simmer for another 30 minutes, adding more water if needed, and stirring occasionally until the macaroni is cooked through and the soup has thickened slightly.
- Serve hot, sprinkled with grated Parmesan cheese.
- **To Freeze:** Allow the soup to cool completely. Then, place in a freezer-safe container, leaving about an inch of headspace. Freeze for up to 3 months.
- **To Reheat:** Thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Gently reheat in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Avoid boiling.
