Garlic Soup

We had this with some toasted pumpernickel and it was very tasty!


INGREDIENTS
1 lb. ground beef, browned
20 cloves garlic
2 cups diced onions
1 cup diced green pepper
3 cups chopped tomatoes, fresh or canned
4 cups beef broth
Salt and Pepper



DIRECTIONS
Separate the garlic cloves and boil them in water in their skins for 30 seconds. Rinse in cold water, drain, and slip off the peels. Slice the cloves thinly. Dice the onions and the green pepper. Roughly chop the tomatoes.
Using a soup pot, heat the olive oil at medium, then add the onions and green peppers. Saute for 4-8 minutes. Add the garlic and tomatoes, and then the ground beef and beef broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Salt to taste and serve.
