Due to our allergies and dietary restrictions, paleo and Whole30 recipes are a no brainer for us.

We keep it simple with this hamburger soup recipe and use carrots, potatoes, and meat, however, feel free to pack this up with the veggies of your choice.

I also choose to make it in the Instant Pot , but you could do this on the stove top by simmering it until the potatoes are tender.

What ingredients do I need to make this easy hamburger soup?

  • ground beef- you can use ground turkey, but it won’t be as thick and hearty. 
  • potatoes
  • avocado oil

  • pepper, thyme, paprika, parsley, granulated garlic, salt, pepper

    I don’t have an instant pot, any recommendations on how to make this soup on the stove? Thank you!

    1. livingfreelygf says:

      Yes! You can do this in a stockpot on the stove by following the same steps, browning the meat, adding the potatoes, broth, seasonings, etc. Then bring it to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and allow it to simmer until the potatoes are tender.

      1. Could you cook this in a crockpot?

        1. livingfreelygf says:

          Yes, brown the meat on the stove first and then cook on low for 6-8 hours.

  2. Tiffany Benke says:

    I have a ninja foodie, there is not a Soup setting. And is there an amount of time to cook on the soup setting? Thank you.

    1. livingfreelygf says:

      Hi Tiffany. You can cook on high pressure for 35 minutes.

  3. What kind of potatoes do you use? I grabbed the small creamer potatoes not thinking about possibly needing bigger ones. Recipe says to put 6 potatoes peeled and chopped but if I have smaller potatoes how many should I need?

    1. How many pounds is the bag you got? If they are bite sized I would use all of them, but if you can cut them in half or fourths then probably 16 or so potatoes. I like a lot of potatoes, so more is better!

  4. Excited to try this recipe during my Whole30! I didn’t see a type of broth indicated in the recipe. Would you recommend chicken or beef broth?
