Do you like to travel? I like to travel as long as the whole family goes, but I don’t like to leave the boys to go. But, then, I hate packing them when we all travel. No, I can’t trust them to do it themselves yet. Do you like to pack? I absolutely hate it!

H-a-t-e it!

I used to be a very thorough, smart packer. But, then I got the task of packing for me and both boys. It’s just overwhelming. At least when we go to the beach, they don’t really need clothes. Well, you know what I mean. They need a couple of swimsuits, suntan lotion and 2 pairs of shorts! Boys are easy like that.

Traveling to a cold area with coats and boots and sweaters is exhausting!

While I packed for the latest trip, Big Daddy made this awesome soup. He’s the soup maker in the family. He makes a HUGE production of making soup. That’s pretty exhausting too!

The soups I’ve made in the past take about 30 minutes to make. That’s why I like soup. It’s quick and most of them can be made in a slow cooker and require very little hands-on time.

Not for Big Daddy. Oh, no. When Big Daddy makes soup it takes all day! Whatever soup he’s making, I call All Day Soup.

Beef Vegetable Soup

  1. I prefer chuck roast for soup. Those packages of stew meat in the grocery stores are bits and pieces of different cuts of meat. I don’t recommend them.
  2. You can use shoepeg or whole kernel corn. As well, you can use either canned or frozen.
  3. My mom didn’t put rice or noodles in vegetable soup. Therefore, I don’t. However, you can if you like it. You can add 1 cup white rice and or 6 ounces egg noodles.

This Beef Vegetable Soup has tangy tomato broth and is full of hearty vegetables. I always put extra potatoes in because I like them best.

This is a hearty beef and vegetable stew. Perfect for cold winter nights. Easy enough to make on a weeknight. Substitute your favorite vegetables if you aren't fond of the ones I used. It would be great with pumpkin or sweet potatoes. This recipe is easily adapted for the slow cooker. After browning meat, transfer to a slow cooker and simmer 4 hours.

  1. I hate packing too – mostly because there are 7 of us :o) If it were just me, or Brian and myself, it wouldn’t be too bad! Your soup looks and sounds great! Pinned and shared on FB – thanks for linking up to Freedom Fridays!

  2. Curious about the “1 oz. cans” of corn and green beans -surely that’s a typo?

  3. Paula, this looks so good. My mom used tomato juice in soups and chili. I had forgotten that. Thanks, for sharing. I try to wait to peach until the last minute. That way I don’t take too much. I HATE heavy suitcases.

    1. Linda, my husband waits until the last second, drives me nuts. We’d be late leaving every time if I didn’t do almost all the getting ready 🙂

  4. I hate packing for that reason! Although the kids pick out their clothes, I still have to go through them and make sure they are appropriate. Then you have to be sure they have good shoes, jackets, essentials-this is all before I think of myself! Kind of like my life! This looks like a good, warm your belly soup! Very hearty!

    1. oh, you know what I forgot to put in that post, we then left their entire bag of clothes at home!! They had one small bag with 2 set in it!

  5. Paula, love how you sneak in extra potatoes like I sneak in extra dumplings! This soup looks hearty and delicious – nothing like a big bowl of homemade soup! Thanks for sharing and pinning! Have a great Wednesday!
