Recipe Notes
Tips and Stuff:
- I added a another cup of water to her original recipe (called for 2 cups) because I wanted to make sure and have enough to take to my friend.
- Remember to drain off excess grease after browning the hamburger meat and before you add the rest of the ingredients so the soup won't be oily.
- The original recipe didn't have basil, but it's one of my favorite herbs so I put it in almost everything!
- Be sure and add the cauliflower when the recipe calls for it - you don't want it to get mushy.
- Next time I might add even more vegetables - the broth base of this is soooo good!
