    Steps to make

    Follow these easy steps to make hamburger soup.

    1. Brown ground beef, onions, and celery until completely cooked. (photo 1)
    2. Add tomato paste, beef broth, diced tomatoes, sliced carrots, cut green beans, cubed radishes, crushed garlic, bay leaf, and seasoned salt. (photo 2)
    3. Cook to a boil. Reduce heat and cook on low for 2 or more hours. (photo 3)

    For low carb, use radishes instead of potatoes

    Radishes? Ewe! Gross! Right? At-least that is what my husband says...

    Radishes are actually the perfect low carb substitute for potatoes in a soup.

    Why? Because when cooked for a long time the loose the red color of the skin, and have the same texture of a potato.

    Radishes also absorb the flavors of the soup and taste similar to what a potato would taste like in a soup.

    Honestly, after cooking the soup for 2 hours, you won't know the radishes are not potatoes! It is a brilliant switch! A ½ cup of radishes are about 12 calories and no fat with almost no carbs! Win! Win!

    I even fooled my husband when I served him this low carb hamburger soup.

    He claims he hates radishes, and he really thought he was eating potatoes in the soup. I showed him!

    Can you freeze soup?

    This hamburger soup freezes well. I often make a huge batch and freeze leftovers to pull out for another night.

    Cool soup completely before freezing. Then store in an air tight container or freezer bag.

    More cooking tips!

    I like to use Pomi Chopped Tomatoes 26.46 Oz (Pack of 6)for my tomatoes. Pomi tomatoes have the most fresh garden flavor you can buy. They literally taste like you hand picked the tomatoes out of the garden and chopped them up to cook with.

    I am addicted to them. They really help bring flavors to a dish, but you can add your favorite tomatoes and it will still be AMAZING!

    Multi-task! You can make this soup even on a busy day!

    Let the soup cook for about 2 hours while you are getting other things done and BAMB!! You will have an incredible low carb hamburger soup for dinner!

    Tip: I like the carrots in my soup, but if you want to cut additional carbs, you can take those out.

    Tip: For lower sodium in this recipe, use low sodium broth, low sodium canned tomatoes, low sodium tomato paste, and frozen green beans.
