Roasting the ingredients helps bring out the delicious flavors of the beef & vegetables. This soup has less than 10 ingredients and is easy to make
The first time I made this soup (the first of many times, I might add), I was roasting vegetables for Thanksgiving, and I decided to add another roasting pan to the oven to test out this soup recipe.
I found the recipe in an old Everyday Food Magazine {October 2010}, and I immediately ripped out the recipe since I love anything roasted.
I was pleasantly impressed with how good this soup was! and how easy!!
I shouldn’t be too shocked since roasting is my favorite method for cooking vegetables, but I really loved this soup.
There are only 9 ingredients, and it’s pretty simple.
You just chop the onions & mushrooms. Cut the beef into pieces {or get your butcher to do it for you}
Put the veggies tossed with oil on a roasting pan. Put in the oven to roast for 25 minutes. With 10 minutes remaining, add the beef to the roasting pan. Cook until beef is done, about 10 minutes. Then transfer the roasted veggies & meat to a soup pot with some broth or water & quinoa.
Bring all that to a boil, then simmer until the quinoa is cooked. Done.
If you want to make this vegetarian/vegan, use vegetable broth or water and replace the pound of beef with an additional pound of mushrooms {to total 2 lb. mushrooms}.
To make this more budget friendly, use 1/2 pound steak and 1.5 pounds mushrooms.
