I Need a Receipt for a Low Carb Soup Using Ground Beef
Jump to Recipe
In this post I'm sharing how to make an easy and healthy Low Carb Hamburger Vegetable Soup.
It's a bit odd that I am writing a post for a soup recipe and we're having an unseasonably warm day in February. It's 75 degrees, y'all! Fortunately, I made this soup a few weeks ago so I didn't spend time in a hot kitchen today.
We'll be throwing something on the grill later to enjoy this beautiful weather.
Soup is one of those comfort foods that we all seem to enjoy. There are endless possibilities when it comes to making a pot of soup. It can be simple or complex. Be ready in minutes or simmer all day.
This is an easy soup recipe and is ready in about 45 minutes. Forming the ground beef into mini meatballs add a nice texture and keep the soup "clean" and add interest.

To keep this soup low carb, we're omitting using vegetables that are high in carbs, such as potatoes and corn.
I typically use a ground chuck ground beef because it has a nice fat ratio which adds flavor. I opted to go with a leaner ground beef for this soup so there is no grease floating around on top.
Tips for preparing this soup: Season as you go when preparing food to add layers of flavor. Season the ground beef before preparing the mini meatballs. Salt enhances flavors in food. Pepper is a spice.
If you enjoy other seasonings with the beef, feel free to use them to suit your own taste. Be sure to taste the soup near the end of cooking and adjust seasonings if needed for a delicious meal.
Low Carb Hamburger Veggie Soup
What do I need to make low carb hamburger vegetable soup?Lean ground beef, celery, an onion, garlic, sliced carrots, green beans, mushrooms, cauliflower and rich chicken bone broth.
I used a jar of carrots and green beans that I pressure canned at home. You can use a regular can of each from the store. Fresh sliced carrots would work nicely as well.
