This Easy Vegetable Beef Soup Is Pure Comfort in a Bowl
Step 5: The Final Green Touch & Serve! 🌽🟢
- Stir in the frozen corn, peas, and green beans. Let them simmer uncovered for about 5 minutes just until they are heated through and vibrant.
- Taste the broth and adjust the seasonings with a bit more salt and pepper if needed. Discard the bay leaf.
- Ladle big, steaming scoops into bowls, garnish with a flurry of freshly chopped parsley, and serve hot!
💡 Chef’s Pro-Tips for Success
- The Ground Beef Shortcut: If you’re running short on time, swap the stew meat for lean ground beef! Just brown the ground beef with the onions, drain any excess grease, and skip straight to building the broth. This cuts your simmer time down by 20 minutes! ⏱️🤠
- The Perfect Sidekick: This soup practically begs to be served with a warm, crusty piece of French bread, a slice of buttered cornbread, or a handful of oyster crackers to soak up every last drop of that rich tomato broth. 🥖🧈
