Hamburger Stew with Cabbage

I grew up eating Shoney's hamburger soup with cabbage in Kansas City with my parents. They had an all-you-can-eat soup and salad bar, and it was the highlight of my week. Even as a kid, I've always loved soup. Then we moved out of state. Even though it has been nearly 40 years since I last had it, I never forgot about their cabbage soup with hamburger. I decided to recreate it based on my memory, and here is what I came up with.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef

  • 1 medium green bell pepper, chopped

  • 1 medium onion, chopped

  • 2 stalks celery, sliced

  • 2 (15 ounce) cans dark red kidney beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes

  • ½ head cabbage, shredded

  • 2 cups beef broth

  • 2 cups water

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 cubes beef bouillon

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • salt to taste

Directions

  1. Crumble ground beef into a large soup pot; cook and stir over medium-high heat until browned and crumbly, about 5 minutes. Drain grease. Add bell pepper, onion, and celery. Cook and stir for 5 minutes.

  2. Increase heat to high. Add kidney beans, tomatoes, cabbage, beef broth, water, Worcestershire sauce, bouillon, and garlic; stir to combine. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes.

  3. Ladle soup into bowls and season with salt.

Recipe Tip

While it won't taste like Shoney's, ground venison also works well with this recipe.
