Every time I post my mom’s homemade vegetable beef soup, you all ask for it, so I’ve finally compiled a recipe to share with you all. You won’t believe how easy it it, truly easy! I asked her exactly how she makes it and today I’m sharing it with y’all!
Doesn’t that look good? It really is so good and tasty.
Iris's Homemade Vegetable Beef Soup
Home made vegetable beef soup using frozen veggies.
Ingredients
- 1/2 to 3/4 lb. Stew Beef - If you have a pressure cooker, that's how she cooks her beef, but if not, cook in crockpot the day before and then cut up beef. You can use whatever beef you like. I usually use chuck roast.
- 1 pkg. Beefie Onion Soup Mix from Lipton - one envelope plus 3 cups water
- 3 frozen pkgs. Kroger soup mix vegetables (Green beans, potatoes, okra, celery, peas, lima beans)
- 1 frozen pkg. Kroger mixed veggies (carrots, peas, green beans)
- 1 large can Chopped tomatoes
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions

All she does is stew the beef, chop up the beef for soup, add all ingredients and simmer for an hour or so. Even better left over! Delicious and so good for you! Serve with homemade cornbread.
If you can’t see this recipe plugin above, let me know and I’ll copy and paste the recipe below. The plugin is great for printing it off!
It’s really good with her homemade cornbread. I’ve shared that recipe before in this post so hop over there and print it off. Look just down the page for the cornbread recipe. That recipe is for cornbread dressing too, so you have to make cornbread first.
Hope you enjoy!
Y’all I’m still going to work on that cookbook, but it’s going to be after Christmas. I can’t seem to find time to get going on it and finish what I need to finish, plus figure out the self publishing thing too. I will get to it eventually, I promise! Thanks for hanging in there with me. All of this takes a lot of time for me to figure out.
When you say “large” can of diced tomatoes, what size exactly? Thanks😀
Hi, Karen, one of those 15 or 16 oz. cans should be fine. Mom uses her canned tomatoes from their garden and uses less than a quart jar.
This looks so delicious and easy! Thank you Mrs. Iris!💕
Adding this to my recipes immediately! My sweet husband likes nothing better than a bowl of stew and mine just never seems quite right. Thanks to you and your family for sharing this one….now I need to whip up one of your mom’s amazing desserts. 🙂
My mom is almost 94 and loves just about any kind of soup. I’m definitely going to make this. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing her recipe. Can’t wait for the cookbook.
That look delicious! Oh my, that cornbread. My husband and I love cornbread, but I stopped cooking it because we eat the entire loaf at one meal.
This looks a lot like my mom’s veggie soup except she used V-8 instead of the onion soup. It was so good. I didn’t appreciate it as much as I should have. We always had a good dinner every night. Usually a meat, potato a salad and maybe another side.
Awww, that is so sweet of you to share your Mom’s recipe! It’s so fun to see how other folks make their vegetable soup. This looks like a great and tasty recipe! Thanks to your mom for sharing! I hope she and your dad are doing well!
There”s nothing like Mom’s home cooking. This looks perfect for these chilly fall evenings.
Thanks, Rhoda, for sharing your Mom’s soup recipe with us! It sounds so delicious! I am going to make this soup tomorrow. We love homemade soup and are always looking for new ones — especially with winter coming!
Looking forward to getting your cookbook with all your family recipes! It’s going to be a great cookbook!
Enjoy your week! Blessings!
This is a silly question, but do you use the beef broth from cooking the beef and the 3 cups of water? Three cups of water fiend seem like enough broth for a pot of soup. You didn’t say, so want to make sure I do it right! Can’t wait for that cookbook!
Hey, Lauren, don’t count the broth from cooking the beef. Just use 3 cups as listed. Or use the broth but count it as part of the 3 cups.
I meant to say “ *doesnt* seem like enough “
Thrilled to have your mom’s veggie soup recipe and just in time for soup weather! I needed her corn bread recipe too. Yay!
I am enjoying a bowl of this delicious soup. I wish I ‘d added a little more beef but it is good! Made a batch of Martha White Mexican cornbread to go with it. Love the recipes! Keep them coming!
Hi, thank you for all the wonderful ideas! I love your stylish and practical approach to decorating recipes, and life in general!! Just wondering, what is your favorite stove top cookware? I’ve never had a good matched set and may ask Santa for one.
HI, Susan, thank you so much! I am using a set I’ve had for 20 years that came from Macy’s. This is not my set, mine is plain silver colored, but here’s a great deal from Macy’s on the same cookware. I’ve really enjoyed mine. https://rstyle.me/+lRL6RcCi1vhkvH8U_FzpaQ
