This large, hearty soup is a meal in a bowl! Ground beef, garlic sausage and vegetables are simmered together until it's soup perfection. Serve with cornbread for the perfect meal.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 large onion chopped
- 1 ounce package kielbasa sausage sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
- 4 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 ounce can tomato diced, drained
- 1 .5 ounce can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers with liquid
- 2 russet potato peeled and diced
- 1 ounce cans pinto beans drained
- 1 ounce cans whole kernel corn with liquid
- 1 cup mixed vegetables frozen
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin ground
- 1-2 teaspoons chili powder
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the ground beef and onions in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Break up the meat to make sure that there aren't any clumps.
- Cook and stir until the meat is no longer pink and the onion has softened and is transluscent.
- Add the sausage and garlic to the skillet. Saute for 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.
- Drain off the grease, and transfer the meat mixture to a large pot.
- Pour the large can of diced tomatoes and diced tomatoes with chilies into the pot with the meat. Stir then add in the potatoes, pinto beans, corn, mixed vegetables and chicken stock.
- Season with cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper.
- Cover, and simmer over medium-low heat for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Cooking longer isn't a bad thing as it makes the stew taste better so feel free to do so.
Notes
- Adjust the seasonings to your personal tastes, they can be spicy!
