Kouts Ecclesia, Indiana
This was tried, tested, and approved by a very picky panel....my husband and son!
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
1 cup chopped onion
2 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 can (28 ounces) tomatoes
6 cups water
6 beef bouillon cubes
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 cups uncooked orzo (I use rice sometimes)
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, carrots, and corn vegetable blend
French Bread (optional....but highly recommended!)
Cook beef, onion and garlic in large saucepan over medium-high heat until beef is brown, stirring to separate meat: drain fat. Puree tomatoes with juice in covered blender or food processor. Add tomatoes, water, bouillon cubes and pepper to meat mixture. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low. Simmer, uncovered, 20 minutes. Add orzo and veggies. Simmer 15 minutes more. Serve with French bread. Makes 6 servings.
This tastes even better the night after.
