Kansas City Steak Soup
|
|
|
|
Despite its name, this filling vegetable-beef soup has traditionally been made with ground beef. In this updated version, the percentage of calories from fat has been pared to 23%, but the full rich flavor remains. If time permits, allow the soup to simmer an additional 30 minutes--the flavors just get better and better.
