Oma's German Green Bean Soup
  1. In large pot or a large saucepan over medium high heat, heat the oil and sauté the ground beef until it starts to brown.

  2. Add onions. Continue to sauté onions until they are translucent.

  3. Add frozen green beans and raw potatoes. (If using cooked potatoes, add once beans are cooked and just reheat.)

  4. Add just enough broth to almost cover veggies. Scrape up any browned bits at the bottom of the pot.

  5. Add savory and Vegeta and stir.

  6. Bring to boil and lower to a medium-low heat. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes until vegetables are tender.

  7. Stir in just enough instant mashed potato flakes to thicken the broth of the soup, if using. Soup will thicken slightly more as it rests after adding the potato flakes.

  8. Season with salt, pepper, and extra summer savory, if desired.
