Notes
- Ground beef: I use either 85% or 90% lean ground beef.
- Tomato sauce: Tomato sauce is canned pureed tomato.
- Kidney beans: You can use light or dark red kidney beans.
- V-8: I use original V-8 in this recipe.
- Parmesan rind: The parmesan rind is optional, but it adds a little something extra to the soup.
