    Vegetable Beef Soup that’s Versatile, Cheap, Easy, and Delicious!

    0
    By Alisa Fleming on January 7, 2019 Dairy-Free Recipes, Soup

    All this talk about New Year’s resolutions and diets has my head spinning. I just want some good dairy-free comfort food that leaves me nourished. Who’s with me? This easy vegetable beef soup reminds me of childhood. It’s a simple classic that’s filled with nutrition, and can be enjoyed without the fuss. Because life isn’t perfect, and we shouldn’t expect our food to be either.

    Vegetable Beef Soup that’s Versatile, Cheap, Easy, and Delicious!

    This recipe uses a lot of canned goodies, to keep the prep time short. But don’t be afraid to add more fresh elements if you have them on hand. And use caution when selecting your broth. Believe it or not, some brands do contain dairy!

    More Vegetable Beef Soup Options

    • Beef – If preferred, you can trim the fat from 1 pound rump roast and cut the meat into 1-inch cubes. Use it in place of the ground beef, but increase the oil to 2 tablespoons. For a vegan alternative, see the dietary section below.
    • Carrots – You can substitute 1 pound of sliced, steamed carrots for the canned carrots.
    • Green Beans – I personally love canned beans, but fresh cut green beans work well too! Just make sure to steam them lightly before adding them to your soup. The tough exterior of green beans benefits from a little softening.
    • Protein Pasta– Want even more protein in this vegetable beef soup? Use lentil pasta! It’s naturally gluten-free, allergy-friendly, and we really like it.
    • Beans – I’ve included beans as a vegetarian option, but you might just want to add some! My favorite bean in soups is lima beans. Yes, really.
    • Corn – Sweet corn kernels, whether canned, frozen (and defrosted), or cut fresh from the cob are fantastic in soup.
    • Peas – The pop of green peas goes nicely in soup, and can even be substituted for the green beans, if desired.
    • Herbs – Just basil is wonderful, but you can use a blend of 1/4 teaspoon each dried basil, oregano, parsley, and thyme for something different.
    • Spice – Add a pinch of ground cayenne pepper if you’re craving a kick.
    • Lighter – This is a rich, chunky vegetable beef soup. You can thin it with more water or broth, and salt to taste, if needed.

    Special Diet Notes: Vegetable Beef Soup

    By ingredients, this recipe is dairy-free / non-dairy, optionally egg-free, optionally gluten-free, nut-free, peanut-free, and soy-free. Be sure to choose the broth and noodles that suit your dietary need.

    For a vegetarian and vegan version, substitute vegan “beef-style” broth or mushroom broth for the beef broth. You can enjoy a vegan ground round in place of the beef, or simply substitute 1 can of your favorite beans, drained and rinsed. Another delicious option is 8 to 16 ounces of mushrooms (depending on how much you like them!) sautéed in place of the beef.

    The original recipe calls for low-sodium broth, but I prefer to use the regular stuff. Use what suits your tastes best, and don't be afraid to season to taste with salt, pepper, or more herbs and spices! See the post above for more suggestions.
