Notes

For a richer flavor, consider browning the ground beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, which ensures even cooking. Adjust the seasoning to taste, and feel free to add vegetables like spinach or mushrooms for added texture and nutrition. This soup is versatile and can be made vegetarian by substituting ground beef with plant-based protein and using vegetable broth.
