chopped green beans, 4 cups (fresh or frozen)

Approach to Preparation
Making the soup’s foundation is the first step in your culinary journey. Throw the potatoes, water, carrots, onion, salt, and pepper into a big pot and bring to a boil. Over medium-high heat, bring the ingredients to a boil, letting them combine harmoniously. Turn the heat down to a low simmer as soon as the water starts to boil. Simmer, covered, for about 25 minutes, or until veggies are soft. The potatoes and carrots will soften and provide their natural sweetness to the broth during this vital phase, making for a tasty and soothing soup foundation.
When the veggies are soft, it’s time to spruce up your soup by adding some colorful extras. Combine cooked ground beef, corn, tomato juice, and green beans (fresh or frozen). Similarly, toss in the bay leaves, garlic powder, and Italian spice. The soup’s character is elevated by the distinct flavors and textures imparted by each of these components. Tomato juice adds acidity and substance, while green beans provide a crisp, refreshing crunch. The ground beef not only adds protein but also a flavorful depth to the broth, and the spice makes it smell warm and fragrant.
Once all the ingredients are mixed, cover the pot and boil the soup for another 30 minutes, stirring regularly to make sure everything blends completely. The veggies will keep becoming softer as the ground beef soaks up all the broth’s flavor as it simmers. Remember to take out and discard the bay leaves when it’s time to serve; they’ve added flavor but aren’t necessary for the finished meal.
