Y'all who are putting rude comments cuz there's beef seem to not understand that's how we cook. We call it veggie soup because veggies that are the main part of the dish. Chill out
#ezrabrooks12 ~ guess y'all dumb Yanks 'cos whoever heard of BEEF in a VEGGIE soup ffs??? However, not sure what stupid comments re. political views add to the debate #Corbyn/TrumpUnholyAlliance
My husband loves veggie soup! I always make a beef roast (beef roast, beef broth, petite diced tomatoes, onions, potatoes and carrots) the day before I make my soup. I shred the left-over beef into a pot, then just dump all the leftovers in. Two or three cans of mixed veggies, and it's done! I'm a born Yankie, but spent several years in Tennessee ad Georgia.
Great video! I love the way you thoroughly explained each item and each step and didn't have some annoying music playing like some videos do smh. My grandma used to make this all the time when I was growing up....the only way I would eat okra lol. To all the people that are trying to nitpick about the "Beef"....just omit it! Why are people so quick to look for a flaw? If you want all vegetables... put all vegetables! If you don't like Lima beans.....don't put them! Jesus Christ! No one is twisting your arm people....either watch it, make it or don't.
Selena Armstead that warms my heart. I know the feeling of wanting comfort food that feels like a hug. I ‘m really sorry about your Mom. Sending hugs your way.
Great way to make a pot of veggie soup. I was raised on good ole homemade veggie soup with ground beef in it, and cornbread. I make ours today almost like Miss Phyllis does. As a matter of fact, we've got a crock pot filled to the top just like that soup in the kitchen right now. One of the main things about that soup recipe, it sticks to the ribs. Thanks for sharing Miss Phyllis.
This is my family's usual recipe except we sub cabbage for the lima beans. I can eat this delicious soup all week. Tomorrow I will pop in an iron skillet of corn bread, no sugar, please. It is snowing and sleeting here jn Indiana, so this steams up the windows nicely and makes it cozy and warm. I wish everyone could enjoy this good soup.
Be sure to check out my video for "Crispy Southern Cornbread"! It too has no sugar and is what we eat with vegetable soup. One of our favorite comfort meals!
@@sissyjollie I love no sugar cornbread too! But most people seem to enjoy sweet. Also I use buttermilk cornmeal and real, full fat buttermilk. I know it may not be real healthy but we don't eat it all the time.
mary smukler buttermilk makes great cornbread. Living out in the country as we called it, you used what you had on hand. I’ve seen my Mom use water to stir up cornbread and save the buttermilk for biscuits.
@@sissyjollie My mother used water also and if the milk had soured she would use that. I remember her telling me to never throw out sour milk because you could always use it to make bread with.
i'm one of those 'dumb yankees' but my parents are from the south and this is how my mom always made it, except she chopped up a chuck roast to use rather than ground beef. but it was always called vegetable soup even though there's beef in it. i actually just made some for mom last week when she was sick, so the tradition continues...despite my yankeeness...
cynrok no “dumb yankees” ! Chuck roast is good as well as beef stew. I have even used a ham bone or a chunk of leftover ham, it all imparts great flavor into the soup! Hope your Mom is feeling much better.
I was waiting at the doctors office and I saw this video on my iPad left with by the grocery store and got the ingredients and it's on the stove now smells delicious thank you Phyllis
My family has always used ground beef in our vegetable soup. We either had grilled cheese with it or peanut butter sandwich. It's always been one of my favorite meals. Try adding a couple of tablespoons of tomato paste to it, it adds so much more flavor.
Hi I made this with veggies I and my family like. It was great! Since I make big batches of soup then divide it up for lunches at work, I was able to can the rest and it came out well in the pressure canner. Thanks for the great recipe!
This reminds me so much on how my grandmother used to make our vegetable stew. You’re so awesome Phyllis. Keep up the good work it is truly appreciated
FunFantastic Facts, I didn't say it was vegetarian, but you can easily adapt it to be. In my part of the South, folks love a meaty flavor to their soup. This is how my Mom made vegetable soup and my family likes it this way. I think it was a way of stretching her food budget.
It's just a matter of what you call it. A bit further north and it's called hamburger soup and made almost exactly the same way. I'm a southerner and proud of it. Had a wife from Philadelphia once, but that's another story.
I love this video! And for those complaining about the wording, usually in the South (I’m from TN) when we say “vegetable soup” or “vegetable stew,” it can be made with OR without chicken or beef. It’s used interchangeably. :) I like to make mine with chicken. This video is the way my mom always made it. She often even adds elbow macaroni which I’m sure will make some of you roll over in your graves even more 😂 , and yes, still calls it vegetable soup lol!
Yep born and raised Tennessee girl here. But live in Southern Mississippi now. But yeah this is usually how we make it and say vegetables but there's meat in it. Doesn't matter it's all good.
Ambience Junkie you are so right to use the veggies that you like best. With summer veggies coming in now, I use some of them too- fresh green beans and squash are some of my favorites.
My family is from puerto rico; we mostly ate latin & italian cooking. I'm learning to cook american southern dishes now & enjoying it. My kids LOVE this recipe INCLUDING the okra & enjoy watching u cook! It's freezing here in Missouri so we're eating your soup tonight, God bless you😊
Nilda Bridgeman aww.... thanks! During my hubby’s Army career, we were stationed in Missouri at FLW from 1992-1995. That area has really grown since we were there!
This is the best veggie soup I have found yet. Thanks for sharing. I'm thinking of making two different versions, One with meat and one without meat, and freezing them.
Looks good I think I will be trying this soon for my family vegetables are good for you and I really need to start eating more for better health thanks for sharing!
I hope you and your family will love my soup! Try it with my Crispy Southern Cornbread! My family is ready for a pot full after all of our Thanksgiving goodies.
This is almost exact how my gram taught me to make veggie soup. Sometimes instead of ground beef I use leftover slow roast beef...either way is yummy and you gotta have cornbread on the side💖. Western NC girl here - thanks for sharing
Good old southern hamburger and vegetable soup. My granny used everything from her garden and there butchering season. Nothing bought in a store . I miss my granny
Debbie, thanks for sharing that. I sometimes use leftover roast or even some beef stew meat. When I’m sharing a recipe, I like to use ingredients that are easily available to all and not too expensive!
Victoria Bonney you are so welcome! I hope you will enjoy it as much as we do. I made some last week for a neighbor going through chemo and she was delighted with it!
good-looking recipe. I have been looking for a good recipe for a while now. My mother broke her hip 2 weeks ago so as usual I am doing all of her cooking and I am eating as well. I will remove the hamburger and Worcestershire sauce and I will add barley in place of potatoes. I will also put it in the slow cooker. I will then see a bunch in my ceiling meal to freeze and give her a good size container of it as well so she can eat right away. I am disabled and often don't feel well my mother is the same so I wanted to have a good vegetable soup in the freezer for days when we don't feel well. Thank you for the recipe. :-)
It is cold Phyllis! I'm in a little town not too far from you...Angier, NC. I love your recipe! This my recipe as well...just an old southern girl. Love you! Mary
Thank You for the recipe! I run a organization that feeds homeless people and we were looking for a good veggie stew idea that was cheap as we feed 100+ people and are on a tight budget. This looks like the perfect recipe! I like the idea of frozen veggies. I think that if anyone wanted to omit the lean beef and keep it truly veggie and keep a meat aspect, then they could add soyrizo sausage. You are a wonderful cook! I really love your personality, too! Do you think the canned potatoes would work? I am just thinking of how to save prep time on a recipe for 100+ servings.
Bless you for taking care of the homeless! If you leave out the meat, add extra potatoes. As for canned potatoes, they will probably work, but try adding them the last 30 minutes maybe less. Over done potatoes will probably fall apart.
Jake, I just remembered seeing someone talk about adding pasta in addition to my ingredients. If you use extra broth or tomatoes, you could add a bit of pasta to stretch it out.
We served it yesterday for Valentine's Day. I tweeked the recipe just a bit. We were aiming for a completely vegetarian dish, so we substituted the chicken stock and used Miso Stock instead. We sautéed all the ingredients in olive oil for flavor before adding them to the pot. Adding more potatoes for meat was a great idea. Instead of tomatos and tomato sauce, we mixed brown gravy in and made it a real thick and rich brown stew, rather than red and we served it poured over Jasmine Rice. I also borrowed your crispy Corn bread recipe, added cheddar cheese and served a slice with each serving. Let me tell you that we never got more smiles and empty bowls than we did with this recipe. I will be watching your UA-cam channel more closely for more great ideas for our meals sharing program.
Your soup looks so yummy! My Mom always making pots of that soup. It went far feed a large family and normally had another dinner from it. Thank you for sharing your version of this classic soup.
Delicious soup I just made it. Added my favorite vegetables ( which is the only difference and it was good). I live in MN and it gets cold up hear and the soup just warmed me and my family up. I like your videos a lot. Your sweet voice and how you put so much details make it seem like your actually. their much love.
Phyllis, my daughter lives in Fayetteville where she teaches in an elementary school there. I am definitely Southern but have never used hamburger before but I have friends who use it in their soups. Think I’ll give it a try. Just found you on UA-cam as I was searching for a recipe. Look forward to watching your videos.
Up North we call this hamburger soup, minus the okra of course. I love the lima beans in it and I also add cabbage. That's the best part about soup, we each make it our own and how our families like it. It looks like a pot of vegetable goodness.
Phyllis!!! We just made your DELICIOUS vegetable soup. It was amazing and exactly what I was looking for. I live in Miami right now, but I am from Georgia and I looked through at least 20 recipes until I found yours. Your soup was exactly how I remembered it growing up. Thank you for sharing your food, your time, and your talent.
We had almost this soup tonight. I’m from Arkansas, and my husband is from Idaho, and he wouldn’t consider me adding lima beans or okra to the soup. Ours was delicious-but I sure missed those lima beans and okra!
Hello from Fayetteville! Enjoyed watching your video craving. This all daybumy pressure cooker died yesterday but I will make this tomorrow. Can't wait to eat some
you idiots could just leave the meat out.. whallah>> veggie soup !!!! stop griping about it.. This wonderful lady took the time to show us a delicious way to make a pot of soup.. Add whatever you like to it. or not..
@Justice Boofer na you just seem upset...most vegans are upset because they realize their way of life kills more innocent little animals than us meat eaters way of life...you know all the pesticides and herbicides and traps and such that keep the rodents and snakes and birds and deer etc out of the fields of all those greens ;)
Justice Boofer You must have recognized you were the one who couldn’t figure out to just leave... the ...meat ...out, if you don’t want meat in your dish. Why get mad at someone for speaking the obvious that you should have known already. Just laugh at yourself and go on, like “Wow, I could’ve had a V8” moment. Hope you’re well, and happier than when you first commented.. 😂 life is not that serious.
This is very close to how I make mine too. We have always called it hamburger soup. When I make a batch it’s a huge huge batch so that I can freeze some as well, and boy does it freeze well 😁. I also add a bit of water to my tomato cans and tomato sauce cans. We paid for all of the bits in that can lol. Thank you🦋💜
Great video. Just one thing that I prefer to do is wait for the frozen food to come back to room temperature, drain out the moisture from the thawing. When you add cold stuff to a boiling pot like this, it takes longer to cook since it brings down the temperature of the pot by a huge amount... other than that I love these recipes.
Thanks for taking the time to post this, Phyllis! I went through a lot of videos before I found yours. It's cooking on the stove now and smells delicious! Can't wait to eat it up :-)
Gail, do you polish your grinder? I can never decide if I should or not. I do once in a while, but then I work myself to death trying to keep the fingerprints off!
No, I've had it for years and I've never thought to polish it. Mine looks great with age. I think sometime polish removes part of the metal so I wouldn't polish it. Let it grow old gracefully!
You make soup the same way I do!! We love okra in ours too. I do add some frozen peas in addition to the same veggies you used though. It's so good and hearty on cold winter nights! Sometimes I add about 2 tablespoons of Italian dressing and it gives it a really good flavor as it simmers.
Hi Phyllis. Just watched your video. The soup looks delicious. Almost like I make mine, but I use V8 juice instead of tomatoes an I add cabbage to mine. Also, I am also here, born a raised in Fayetteville NC.
I like my soup to have just a hint of an acidic taste and will often add a tablespoon or so of vinegar if the tomatoes do not have enough "edge." Good thing about making your own soup - you can make it to suit yourself! Speaking of strawberry jam . . . Have you tried strawberry freezer jam made from frozen strawberries (as per directions in a box of SureJel). It is super good over a hot, buttered biscuit. Easy to make too.
Y'all who are putting rude comments cuz there's beef seem to not understand that's how we cook. We call it veggie soup because veggies that are the main part of the dish. Chill out
Squade Brooks so happy you understand the concept!

#ezrabrooks12 ~ guess y'all dumb Yanks 'cos whoever heard of BEEF in a VEGGIE soup ffs??? However, not sure what stupid comments re. political views add to the debate #Corbyn/TrumpUnholyAlliance
i only worry if she dont wait the water from the beef evaporated completely before adding more water otherwise the soup will smell.
@@ezrabrooks12 There are republican Trump loving Yankees. We're smart!!
Lol I come back to this video frequently over the last 10 years. Everyone loves it. Making it again right now.
I guess we all grew up on this soup.. can't live through the winter without it, that and corn bread.. ty

I'm from South Carolina. I've never made veggie soup with ground anything. If it's ground meat...it's called hamburger soup here in Charleston.
@@gc-vz4ib vegetable soup without beef is called trash here in the South, and that's exactly where it ends up. Actually, it's not even made.
@@replynotificationsdisabled 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Absolutely!!
I was waiting at the doctors office and I saw this video on my iPad left with by the grocery store and got the ingredients and it's on the stove now smells delicious thank you Phyllis
Hope you are feeling better after your Dr visit and a bowl or 2 of soup!
I gotta tell ya, when you sloshed then water in the cans is when I flashed back to my southern childhood. Tastes like grandma made it. Thanks you.
Sarah B you are so welcome! Memories of my Mom and Grandma stay with me when I’m in the kitchen.🧡
Thanks for doing this!! I follow this recipe every time I make my soup.
Candice thank you! I love it when I can help someone!

In the fall and winter I cook this soup a lot and love it. Thank you for a wonderful recipe.
Delicious soup I just made it. Added my favorite vegetables ( which is the only difference and it was good). I live in MN and it gets cold up hear and the soup just warmed me and my family up. I like your videos a lot. Your sweet voice and how you put so much details make it seem like your actually. their much love.
So glad you liked it! I would assume you have some veggies that are different than what we find in NC! Be sure to try the cornbread with it!
Phyllis, my daughter lives in Fayetteville where she teaches in an elementary school there. I am definitely Southern but have never used hamburger before but I have friends who use it in their soups. Think I’ll give it a try. Just found you on UA-cam as I was searching for a recipe. Look forward to watching your videos.
Susan Gentry thank you! I hope you will like the soup too. Fayetteville is a great place to live.😋
Phyllis, I like your style! I'm ready to make this recipe.
This looks amazing, I'm going to make it this. this weekend. Thank you for a great video!!!!!!
You are so welcome Willis! I hope it will become a regular dish on your dinner table!
Looks good and easy to make thanks for the recipe
Hope you will love it when you make it!
Up North we call this hamburger soup, minus the okra of course. I love the lima beans in it and I also add cabbage. That's the best part about soup, we each make it our own and how our families like it. It looks like a pot of vegetable goodness.
Debbra Rose I love sharing my love of cooking! I add cabbage if I have it on hand, but I don’t usually have it.
Phyllis!!! We just made your DELICIOUS vegetable soup. It was amazing and exactly what I was looking for. I live in Miami right now, but I am from Georgia and I looked through at least 20 recipes until I found yours. Your soup was exactly how I remembered it growing up. Thank you for sharing your food, your time, and your talent.
You are so very welcome Lori!
We had almost this soup tonight. I’m from Arkansas, and my husband is from Idaho, and he wouldn’t consider me adding lima beans or okra to the soup. Ours was delicious-but I sure missed those lima beans and okra!
Okra is one of my favorites, but sometimes we have to compromise!
Hello from Fayetteville! Enjoyed watching your video craving. This all daybumy pressure cooker died yesterday but I will make this tomorrow. Can't wait to eat some

Great recipe and great presentation! Enjoyed your attitude about home cooking!
you idiots could just leave the meat out.. whallah>> veggie soup !!!! stop griping about it.. This wonderful lady took the time to show us a delicious way to make a pot of soup.. Add whatever you like to it. or not..
Thanks for explaining that! Not everyone gets it!
Thanks for a really simple recipe. I don't think that even I could mess that up, although I might leave out the lima beans.
@Justice Boofer are you a vegan?
@Justice Boofer na you just seem upset...most vegans are upset because they realize their way of life kills more innocent little animals than us meat eaters way of life...you know all the pesticides and herbicides and traps and such that keep the rodents and snakes and birds and deer etc out of the fields of all those greens ;)
Justice Boofer You must have recognized you were the one who couldn’t figure out to just leave... the ...meat ...out, if you don’t want meat in your dish. Why get mad at someone for speaking the obvious that you should have known already. Just laugh at yourself and go on, like “Wow, I could’ve had a V8” moment. Hope you’re well, and happier than when you first commented.. 😂 life is not that serious.
from South Carolina and love this easy recipe! looks yum
Kaliesha Vargas thank you!😋
@@sissyjollie making it tomorrow!
This is very close to how I make mine too. We have always called it hamburger soup. When I make a batch it’s a huge huge batch so that I can freeze some as well, and boy does it freeze well 😁. I also add a bit of water to my tomato cans and tomato sauce cans. We paid for all of the bits in that can lol. Thank you🦋💜
Tammy Hanson you are so welcome! It is funny how we all have different names for the same soup! 🍵
I love your soothing voice. This is a great video. Cant wait to make this.
Mrsandmom5 awww...you’re making me blush, but I just know you’re going to love this soup!🥰
Lovely! You're an amazing and a sensible cook; that looks so colorful and yummy!
Thanks for your kind words!
Looks delicious! Making some for supper tonight. BTW I'm from NC as well. We Southerners know how to cook huh? Thanks for the video!
We definitely do! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Great video. Just one thing that I prefer to do is wait for the frozen food to come back to room temperature, drain out the moisture from the thawing. When you add cold stuff to a boiling pot like this, it takes longer to cook since it brings down the temperature of the pot by a huge amount... other than that I love these recipes.
Thanks for sharing your tip!
Looks good. I'll give it a try. Thanks for posting.
Daisy Mae French I hope you will enjoy it as much as we do!😋
So very good, glad I came across this receipe, & yes I will try the cornbread.
So happy you liked it! I made some this week and the cornbread too!!
Thanks for taking the time to post this, Phyllis! I went through a lot of videos before I found yours. It's cooking on the stove now and smells delicious! Can't wait to eat it up :-)
I have the same pepper grinder. My dad brought it back from his trip to Greece. Never knew it was a coffee grinder! Wow
Gail, do you polish your grinder? I can never decide if I should or not. I do once in a while, but then I work myself to death trying to keep the fingerprints off!
No, I've had it for years and I've never thought to polish it. Mine looks great with age. I think sometime polish removes part of the metal so I wouldn't polish it. Let it grow old gracefully!
Very nice, comfort food.
We think so too John!🧡
Yumm! We make ours pretty much the same. Love your show.
Bruce Ezell thank you!
I love this soup!! Great video! I am over near Charlotte!
Not very far away and you know soup is good food!
Fantastic think I'll try it
Mark Pieklik hope it will become one of your favorites too!
Ive made this and it was delicious. Get some regular Triscuits instead of crackers. Yummy yummy.
Helen Vance Vance I don’t think I’ve ever tried Triscuits with it, but I almost always have some in the cabinet. I’ll give them a try!
Thanks for the great soup recipe. I am always looking for new ones Looks delicious! Cant wait to try it.
Hope you will love it too!
looks more like stew
You make soup the same way I do!! We love okra in ours too. I do add some frozen peas in addition to the same veggies you used though. It's so good and hearty on cold winter nights! Sometimes I add about 2 tablespoons of Italian dressing and it gives it a really good flavor as it simmers.
Terri-TN thanks for sharing your adaptations. I have occasionally added peas too!
I like okra in it too!
You do an excellent job! Thank you!!!
chance herring thanks! I certainly try to make it easy.😋
Looks delicious ,,,,that with a slice of buttermilk cornbread with melted butter and ice tea ,,yum
Pearl Young vegetable soup is meant to be served with cornbread! One of our favorite meals!🍲
And good ole peach cobbler for dessert...if you have room!!
Hi Phyllis. Just watched your video. The soup looks delicious. Almost like I make mine, but I use V8 juice instead of tomatoes an I add cabbage to mine. Also, I am also here, born a raised in Fayetteville NC.
Linda, I have another soup that I use V-8 in. I love the flavor. I sometimes throw cabbage in mine, if I have it in the fridge.
It's because of you I learned how to make and enjoy veggie soup! Thanks for a great recipe even my picky kids loved your soup :)
Nilda Bridgeman thank you so much! My daughter loved this as a child too even though she hated tomatoes and onions on their own!
Watching this in 2019. Me and my family all caught a cold this week so I’m about to make this 👌🏻❤️
Mercilys Mama it is just as good today as it was when we first made the video. Hope all of your family will soon be feeling well! Stay warm!
I tried this and it was ABSOLUTELY DELISH!!!
I'm from Arkansas and we say vegetable soup or vegetable beef soup it don't matter it taste good and is a great comfort dish🤷🏾♀️
How yummy! I would add a spoonful of strawberry jam to take the edge off the tomato.
Make it suit your taste. That is what cooking is all about- making it taste yummy to you!
I like my soup to have just a hint of an acidic taste and will often add a tablespoon or so of vinegar if the tomatoes do not have enough "edge." Good thing about making your own soup - you can make it to suit yourself!
Speaking of strawberry jam . . . Have you tried strawberry freezer jam made from frozen strawberries (as per directions in a box of SureJel). It is super good over a hot, buttered biscuit. Easy to make too.
My mother used to make this with Beef Cubes.....Deliciouse
Patrica Dyson I’ve done that too. It is great!
Looks delicious to me!
Betty Banks Thanks! I hope you will enjoy some soon!
a healthy veges soup, Thanks for Sharing
