Can I make vegetable beef soup on the stove top?

Yes! If you don’t want to wait for the slow cooker, you can make this in a large pot or Dutch oven.

Simply sautΓ© the carrots, onions, celery and garlic in a large pot for 4-6 minutes. Then put all the ingredients in and give a mix. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to simmer. You’ll want the beef vegetable soup to simmer for 25-30 minutes so that the potatoes get tender.

Can I freeze vegetable beef soup?

Yes! I actually made a batch and gave to a friend who had surgery. Place in a large air tight container and freeze. Allow to thaw on the counter for 2 hours before reheating in the microwave or on the stove top.
