In a large soup pot or dutch oven, brown the ground beef with diced onion and garlic, until the meat is cooked through. Drain fat.
To meat mixture, add remaining ingredients except for frozen veggies. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 30 minutes or so.
Bring soup back to a boil and then add frozen vegetables to soup and cook over medium-high heat for additional 10 minutes or until veggies are tender. Salt and pepper soup to taste.
Remove from heat and serve immediately, with a crisp green salad and warm crusty bread for a complete meal. ENJOY!
