    Soup: Kansas City Steak Soup

    Source of Recipe

    Diabetic Cooking

    Recipe Introduction

    Despite its name, this filling vegetable-beef soup has traditionally been made with ground beef. In this updated version, the percentage of calories from fat has been pared to 23%, but the full rich flavor remains. If time permits, allow the soup to simmer an additional 30 minutes--the flavors just get better and better.

    List of Ingredients

    Nonstick cooking spray
    1/2 pound ground sirloin or ground round beef
    1 cup chopped onion
    3 cups frozen mixed vegetables
    2 cups water
    1 can (14-1/2 ounces) stewed tomatoes, undrained
    1 cup sliced celery
    1 beef bouillon cube
    1/2 to 1 teaspoon black pepper
    1 can (10-1/2 ounces) defatted beef broth
    1/2 cup all-purpose flour

    Recipe

    Spray Dutch oven with cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat until hot. Add beef and onion. Cook and stir 5 minutes or until beef is browned.

    Add vegetables, water, tomatoes with juice, celery, bouillon cube and pepper. Bring to a boil. Whisk together beef broth and flour until smooth; add to beef mixture, stirring constantly. Return mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 15 minutes, stirring frequently.


    Note: If time permits, allow the soup to simmer an additional 30 minutes--the flavors just get better and better.
