To make this, you’ll need the following ingredients (enough for 6-8 servings): 1 ½ lbs beef stew meat, cut into bite-sized pieces 2 tbsp olive oil 1 large onion, diced 3 cloves garlic, minced 4 carrots, peeled and chopped 3 celery stalks, chopped 3 potatoes, diced 2 cups green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces 1 cup frozen corn 1 cup frozen peas 1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes, with juices 6 cups beef broth 2 tsp dried thyme 1 bay leaf Salt and pepper to taste Fresh parsley for garnish Now, let’s get cooking! Start by heating the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef stew meat and brown on all sides. This step is key for locking in that rich beef flavor! Once browned, remove the meat and set it aside. In the same pot, add the diced onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Next, return the beef to the pot and pour in the beef broth. Add the potatoes, green beans, diced tomatoes (with the juices), thyme, and bay leaf. Bring everything to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Let it cook for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender and the flavors have melded together beautifully. About 15 minutes before serving, stir in the frozen peas and corn. They don’t need long to cook, and this ensures they stay bright and fresh in the soup. Taste your soup and season with salt and pepper as needed. Before serving, remove the bay leaf and sprinkle fresh parsley over the top for a burst of color and added freshness. The result? A robust, hearty vegetable beef soup that's packed with flavor and perfect for feeding a crowd. Serve it with some crusty bread on the side, and you've got a meal everyone will rave about!
