This is a very good recipe that my mother used to make for our family. It tastes great, and is a nice alternative to your typical vegetable beef soup. A homemade bread would be a great accompaniment to this soup. Ingredients:
1 lb ground round |
1 lb extra lean ground turkey |
3 quarts water |
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained |
3 stalks celery, chopped |
1 large onion, chopped |
1 1/2 lbs carrots, peeled and sliced thin |
6 beef bouillon cubes |
4 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into small cubes |
1 teaspoon mrs. dash seasoning mix |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
salt, to taste |
Directions:
1. Mix ground round and ground turkey by hand in a large bowl. Shape into small 1/2 inch meatballs.
2. In a 5-1/2 quart pot, add the water and boil the meatballs approximately 10 minutes, or until they are browned.
3. Skim off the fat with a slotted spoon and discard the fat.
4. Add the undrained tomatoes, celery, and onion, simmer uncovered for 1/2 hour.
5. Add the carrots and the bullion cubes and simmer an additional 1/2 hour.
6. Depending on how much water boils out, you may need to add a little water to adjust the amount of broth.
7. Add the potatoes, Mrs. Dash, and pepper, and simmer an additional 20 minutes.
