Beef vegetable rice soup is a thick and hearty soup; that is sure to fill you up.
Cold weather is here to stay for a while, which means that it is time to start making soup if you haven’t already. This beef vegetable rice soup is one that will stick to your ribs and keep you going. I love packing it for my lunch for work.
Yes, when the cold weather hits, soup for me is a must. Have you had any snow? I have to say that where I live we have been very lucky to miss the snow falls. Believe me; it did not hurt my feelings at all.
I am going to let you in on a little secret. Mike and I had bought a can of beef vegetable soup with rice and wild rice soup. I know, you are saying oh no a can of soup. But let me tell you it was really yummy and it inspired me to make the soup from scratch.
My beef vegetable rice soup is filled with a lot of white rice, wild rice, and a variety of veggies. Mike and I both love rice so I put a little extra rice in this soup, but if you are not as big of a fan of rice you can reduce the amount of rice.
The rice is cooked in the soup which makes a thick and hearty soup, but if you prefer a thinner broth cook the rice separately and add to the soup once it is cooked. I have used onions, celery, carrots, potatoes, and green beans, but feel free to add the veggies that you like to this soup.
Do you need something that will warm you up and stick to your ribs? Make a batch of this beef vegetable rice soup.

We’ve had a couple of dustings of snow so far, but nothing too crazy. But I have a bad feeling about this year…I think it’s going to be a big one for snow. And that’s why we’ll need lots and lots of soup! I love a good beef vegetable soup, and I totally want to try yours out soon. Looks like the perfect solution for a cold day! 🙂
