Paleo Hamburger Soup with Beef and Veggies

This recipe for Hamburger Soup came from a good friend of mine.

Picture a young newlywed, literally scribbling down a recipe as fast as possible in a grocery store while learning about cuts of meat and such from an older married friend.  Of course, she tweaked it a bit to fit her own needs and to meet Real Food standards.

Don’t you just love recipes that evolve like that?

Seasoned Taco Meat

Notes:

  • I always double or triple this recipe, in order to have leftovers.
  • It freezes well, too.
  • This taco meat is great for using up leftover veggies or frozen shredded zucchini from our garden.  The possibilities are endless!
  • It’s not a particularly labor-intensive recipe, but it does require a bit of time to simmer.
  • I like to eat it on salad greens like a taco salad, but my boys prefer to eat it with tortilla chips (see below).  And stay tuned for an awesome paleo tortilla recipe coming soon…
