For a smaller amount of soup, (3-5 servings) try substituting the assorted canned vegetables for two cans Veg-All and reducing other ingredients to 1/4 stated in recipe. Use 1 cup beef broth, 2 cups water, one 15-oz. can diced tomatoes, one 15-oz. can tomato sauce, and 1-1 1/2 lbs. ground chuck. Reduce seasonings to 1 tsp. onion powder, 1/4 tsp. garlic powder, 1/2 tsp. seasoned salt, 1 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. black pepper.

I'm a country girl, born and raised in North Carolina. I haven't had the pleasure of visiting all around the world, but at least it's nice to try some of their cuisine :) I'd love to travel to all the places with the fantastic dishes and enlightening cultural differences, maybe one day. I have a passion for music, poetry and of course COOKING!!! :)
