Simple Hamburger Soup

Ingredients

• 1 large can tomato juice
• 2 cups water
• 8 oz. elbow macaroni or alphabet pasta, cooked
• 1 lb. ground hamburger
• salt and pepper

Cook noodles and drain. Meanwhile, cook ground hamburger. Combine macaroni, cooked hamburger, tomato juice, water and pepper to taste.


If you are preparing this recipe ahead of time, leave the pasta separate from the soup. When it is dinner time warm up the soup and add pasta and soup together right before serving. The pasta noodles will soak up the juice otherwise.
