Instructions

Crockpot Healthy Hamburger Soup Instructions

  • Add the oil to a large skillet and bring to medium heat. Add the ground beef, onion, green pepper, and garlic. Cook and stir until the ground beef is cooked and no longer pink 3-4 minutes.
  • Drain the beef mixture and transfer it to a slow cooker. Add the remaining ingredients, except for the green beans and kale. 
  • Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours or on high side 4-6 hours.
  • When there is 1 hour of cooking remaining, add and stir-in the green beans and kale. Cover and cook for the remaining 1 hour, or until the green beans are tender. If you are using frozen green beans, it may take longer to cook depending on your slow cooker.
  • Taste to season more if needed, serve with chopped parsley and a sprinkle of parmesan.

Instant Pot Healthy Hamburger Soup Instructions

  • Brown the ground beef, oil, green bell pepper and garlic in the Instant Pot on the sauté function. Drain the meat once it is no longer pink, then return it to the Instant Pot.
  • Add the remaining ingredients for the hamburger soup recipe to the Instant Pot except the green beans and kale. Cover the pot and set the valve to sealing. Set the Instant Pot to pressure cook 30 minutes.
  • Once the pot beeps, move the valve to release and let the steam out. Remove the cover carefully after the steam has released. Stir in the kale and green beans. Let the soup sit 10 minutes for the green beans to cook.
  • Taste to season more if needed, serve with chopped parsley and a sprinkle of parmesan.
