This recipe is inspired by my son. When he had his wisdom teeth taken out he desperately wanted pizza and I refused to put some in the blender. I searched and combined a few other recipes to come up with this. I think it would be good with green pepper and mushrooms but my family is picky!

Tips:

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor, use fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices. Avoid using canned or frozen ingredients whenever possible.
  • Brown the Meat Well: Browning the meat adds flavor and depth to the soup. Cook the meat over medium-high heat until it is browned on all sides.
  • Sauté the Vegetables: Sautéing the vegetables helps to bring out their flavor and soften them. Cook the vegetables over medium heat until they are tender.
  • Use a Good Quality Broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Use a broth that is flavorful and has a rich flavor.
  • Season the Soup Well: Season the soup to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a touch of acidity with lemon juice or vinegar.
  • Let the Soup Simmer: Simmering the soup for 30 minutes or more allows the flavors to meld together and develop. The longer you simmer the soup, the better it will taste.
  • Serve with Toppings: Serve the soup with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, or croutons.
