Chunky Meat and Vegetable Soup Recipe.
If you’re looking for something a little bit different to do with ground beef, check this out as an interesting change from meatloaf or scrambles. It’s not quite a chili, but it’s got the same heartiness and comfort value: a rich base of tomatoes and homemade bone broth, the earthy sweetness of root vegetables, and the garlic and chili pepper perking it up with a hint of spice.
