After being spoiled by an extended fall, winter is now officially upon us here in Missouri. Gone now are the fall hikes as we’re hunkered down at home in the evenings. A bright spot to the cooler weather are hearty meals like Beef and Vegetable Soup that I am planning to make in addition to more family movie nights.
I’ve dusted off my dutch oven.
I am adapting my grocery list to accommodate the changing seasons. One of my go-to recipes in icy cold weather is my mom’s Delicious Beef and Vegetable Soup. We call it this because, well, it’s delicious! Also because once upon a time my then two year old niece renamed our Beef and Vegetable Soup “Dewishus Soup.” She’s now 26 but the name lives on! This memory warms my heart as much, if not more, than the soup does.
Delicious, it truly is. I am not one to choose a Beef Soup typically, but I will choose this soup any cold day!
This recipe is highly adaptable so feel free to use whatever veggies you have on hand. If you’re one to save the last of the veggies and end up throwing them away at the end of the week, try making this soup with them instead. It freezes well so make a big batch and store away the extra for a quick weeknight dinner. This soup goes best with a loaf of hot buttered bread.
It’s hard to make Beef and Vegetable Soup and not compare it to how my moms tastes but this latest time I think was perfect!
If you make it please comment below, I’d love to know what you thought of it.
