  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 can diced tomatoes 14.5 ounces
  • 2 cups cabbage chopped

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Notes

For a richer flavor, consider browning the beef in batches to ensure it caramelizes well. If you prefer a thicker soup, you can mash some of the potatoes against the side of the pot while it simmers. Adjust the seasoning to taste, and feel free to add other vegetables such as celery or bell peppers for more variety.
