Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 medium carrots, peeled and diced
- 3 stalks celery stalks, diced
- 1 large potato, peeled and diced
- 14 ounces diced tomatoes, canned
- 6 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 whole bay leaf
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a splash of oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Add the diced onion, minced garlic, carrots, and celery to the pot. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are slightly softened.
Stir in the diced potato, canned diced tomatoes (with their juice), beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and tomato paste. Mix well to ensure the tomato paste is fully incorporated.
Add the dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, black pepper, and bay leaf. Stir to combine.
Bring the soup to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary by adding more salt or pepper.
Remove the bay leaf before serving.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve hot with crusty bread or a side salad.
