Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter
• ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• ¼ cup chopped onion
• 1 (10 ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables
• 1 clove garlic, chopped
• 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
• 1 ½ pounds ground beef
• ½ cup chopped carrots
• ½ teaspoon prepared horseradish
• 3 ½ cups water
• 5 potatoes, chopped
• 1 (10 ounce) package frozen corn
• 2 (28 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, undrained
• grated Parmesan cheese to taste
• 1 tablespoon butter-flavored granules (such as Butter Buds®)
• 1 teaspoon dill seasoning

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and stir in the onion, garlic, and horseradish. Cook and stir until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes, then mix in the ground beef. Cook and stir the ground beef until evenly browned, no longer pink, and crumbly. Drain excess fat, and transfer the cooked beef mixture into a large soup pot.

Step 2

Mix in the tomatoes, water, potatoes, mixed vegetables, carrots, corn, butter-flavored granules, dill seasoning, hot pepper sauce, and cinnamon, and stir to thoroughly combine. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 1 hour. Stir occasionally. Before serving, season to taste with Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper.
