Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef or turkey for a lighter option
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup milk or heavy cream for extra creaminess
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn – your choice!)
  • 2 tablespoons flour to thicken
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for sautéing

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess fat and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the diced potatoes and cover with beef broth. Bring to a light boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for around 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
  4. Add the mixed vegetables, and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  5. In a small bowl, mix flour with a few tablespoons of the broth to create a slurry. Stir this mixture back into the soup to thicken it.
  6. Lastly, stir in the milk (or cream) and season with thyme, salt, and pepper. Let it simmer for another 5 minutes, then serve hot!

Notes

For serving, consider pairing with freshly baked bread, a crunchy side salad, or garlic breadsticks. Leftover soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days or frozen for 2-3 months for later enjoyment.
