Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef
  • 1 small onion, chopped (1/4 cup)
  • 1 can (10 3/4 oz) condensed cream of celery soup
  • 1/2 cup frozen sweet peas (from 1-lb bag)
  • 2 cups tomato juice
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 3/4 teaspoon chopped fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried basil leaves
  • 3/4 teaspoon chopped fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 dried bay leaf
  • 1 cup uncooked egg noodles (2 oz)

Steps

  • 1
    In 4-quart Dutch oven, cook beef and onion over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is brown; drain.
  • 2
    Stir in remaining ingredients except noodles. Heat to boiling. Stir in noodles; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender. Remove bay leaf.

  • Make this simple soup fun by stirring in pasta such as rotini, radiatore or wagon wheels instead of the egg noodles.
  • You can brown and drain ground beef, then freeze it in amounts for use in your favorite recipes such as this soup, tacos or casseroles. Just cook the onion in 1 to 2 tablespoons of oil. Thaw beef in the refrigerator or microwave, and stir it in with noodles.
  • Kids will love this soup when it’s served with fruity gelatin salad along with carrot and celery sticks with ranch dressing to dip them in.
