Easy Beef Soup

Hearty Soup loaded with chunks of beef and veggies, so comforting…

I had beef in my freezer and all kinds of veggies stacked in my refrigerator. And I had only one intention, to make a dish combining the beef and the veggies in the most easiest way, yet it should open up my senses. Well, I did succeed in it. A hearty irresistible soup loaded with chunks of beef and veggies was the outcome. Now, this is one of my favorite soups.
