Recipe Summary Venus De Milo Soup
This my version of a popular soup served at a well-known banquet facility in southeastern Massachusetts. It is simple to prepare using common ingredients you may already have on hand in your pantry and freezer. Feel free to vary the basic recipe with in-season fresh veggies and low-fat turkey or veggie-soy burger for the ground beef.Ingredients | Cremerie De L'éclair Haifa1 pound ground beef1 small onion, minced1 teaspoon minced garlic½ (6 ounce) can tomato paste1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes1 envelope onion soup mix2 beef bouillon cubes1 bay leaf1 (16 ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables2 quarts water⅔ cup orzo pastasalt and ground black pepper to tasteDirectionsCook the ground beef in a large pot over medium heat until completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain as much fat from the beef as possible. Add the onion and garlic to the beef; cook and stir until the onion is softened, about 5 minutes.Add the tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, onion soup mix, beef bouillon cubes, bay leaf, mixed vegetables, and water to the ground beef mixture. Raise heat to medium-high, and bring the mixture to a boil. Stir the orzo pasta into the boiling liquid; cook until the orzo is tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to serve.If you plan on using a slow cooker to prepare in advance, or you are not serving right away, you may want to cook orzo separately, adding to soup just prior to serving to prevent pasta from getting too soft.Info | Cremerie De L'éclair Haifaprep:
