Directions
Brown ground round without oil until well done. Par boil the pototos for 3-4 minutes...do not over cook.
Heat oil in a soup pot and saute onions, carrots and celery for approximately 3-4 minutes. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, stock and spices and cook on medium heat for 20 minutes. Add the ground round and patotos and simmer, covered for 10 minutes.
Serve with toasted garlic bread or crutons. Sprinkle chopped parsley on each bowl of soup if desired Cooks Notes: The excellent canned spiced & chopped tomatoes on the market toady are fantastic. I prefer the Cajun Recipe tomatoes with this soup. One cup of cooked pasta can be substituted for the potatos.
Papa Rock: A Cajun cook of some note.
