Hamburger soup was a childhood favorite of mine! My mom always made the best. We always had tons of garden fresh vegetables and canned tomatoes from the garden, but my quick and easy version I'm sharing today, still has that same comfort in a bowl.

Start off with lean ground beef and onion, then add the veggies, liquids and seasonings! So simple and my kids absolutely love it!

It's a fantastic option for a work or school lunch! Simply pack it in a thermos, and it's good to go. When my oldest daughter was in elementary school, she frequently enjoyed soups for lunch. Preparing a couple of different soups over the weekend ensures you have delicious, budget-friendly lunches ready for the entire week. So simple and convenient! Switch up the vegetables, meat, pasta or seasonings for something different every time you make it.

Another childhood favorite of mine is chicken noodle soup! This Easy Chicken Noodle Soup in the Crock-pot is in our menu plan often, especially when it's cold outside.

Recipe tips and substitution ideas:

• If you prefer, cook the pasta separately and add to your bowl when serving.

• Refrigerate for up to five days in an airtight container.

• This recipe is great with any small pasta, any flavor broth and any ground meat.

• We also use fresh basil, parsley or rosemary instead of Italian seasoning.

• Try using any fresh or frozen vegetables you have, add cabbage or cauliflower instead of pasta or substitute tomato juice instead of water.
