There is nothing quite as comforting as the aroma of a pot of beef soup simmering on the stovetop. It lends a welcome to the kitchen to children coming in from playing in the cold outdoors and to guests that are invited to savor its nutrition
and savory goodness.
There are so many variations of beef soup, from the very simple to the more zesty and spicy versions of this wonderful meaty broth and its vegetable accompaniments. Whether opting for the simple, the in-between, or snappier recipes, there
is almost nothing more satisfying as a prelude to a second course for dinner or for a lunch of juicy beef and vegetables bathed in a nutrient rich liquid, that with a slice or two of crusty French bread can make a complete meal standing
alone.
A hearty beef soup is a winter-time favorite and very easy to prepare. If opting to make a big pot, it can be frozen in smaller containers to be micro-waved at convenience for any time in the future. It's a perfect addition to a lunch box
in a thermal container for a bit of home away from home in the school cafeteria or as a mid-morning pick-me-up at the office. |
