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)

Directions

Step 1

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.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

Add the dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, black pepper, and bay leaf. Stir to combine.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary by adding more salt or pepper.

Step 7

Remove the bay leaf before serving.

Step 8

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve hot with crusty bread or a side salad.
