This Hearty Beef and Potato Soup is a perfect to meal to make from Sunday leftover Pot roast and baked potatoes and the left over gravy too! It is a wonderfully chunky and comforting soup that is easy to pull together in a short amount of time!
Today (August 19) is National Potato Day! to celebrate I am sharing this hearty soup that marries the best of comfort, pot roast and potatoes!
We all envision soups taking all afternoon to simmer on the stove, but this soup is easy to pull together, yet has that slow cooked taste! By using the leftovers from your Sunday pot roast meal, you can turn it all into a wonderful soup, that everyone will enjoy!
I love repurposing meals for a second day and finding ways to do it where the family doesn't feel like they are totally re=eating the same meal all over again. By creating this Beef and Potato soup I can easily freeze it for a meal down the road, turn it into lunches for work, or a light dinner with biscuits or grilled sandwiches or salad.
Shall we get to cooking?
