  • 2 lbs. Beef stew meat
  • 4 Tbsp. Avocado oil (or vegetable oil)

  • 4 Carrots Medium size
  • 4 Stalks Celery
  • 4 Cloves Minced Garlic
  • 1/2 Cup All Purpose Flour

Instructions

  • Add two tablespoons of oil to a large pot and brown beef on medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper while cooking and add more oil if needed.
  • Once cooked, remove the beef from the pot and place aside until needed.
  • Add another tablespoon of oil to the pot and cook your diced onions on medium heat for two minutes.
  • After the onion has cooked for two minutes, add the carrots and celery and cook for another two minutes, stirring frequently so nothing burns.
  • After the onion, celery, and carrots have cooked for two minutes together, add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
  • Add the flour and beef broth and stir together until everything is combined.
  • Once the broth and flour are combined, add the cooked beef, tomatoes, thyme, basil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and bay leaves to the soup bay leaves to the soup.
  • Bring the soup to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • After 30 minutes, add the potatoes and cook for another 20 minutes.
  • After the potatoes have cooked for 20 minutes, add the corn, green beans, and peas and simmer for another 20 minutes.
  • Once done simmering, taste and add salt and pepper as needed. This is a VERY important step as an under-seasoned soup will not taste right. Be sure to add small amounts at a time and repeat until you have it how you like it.
  • Garnish with parsley, serve, and enjoy!
