In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 4 minutes.

Step 3

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef, cooking until it's browned and no longer pink, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat if necessary.

Step 5

Stir in the diced tomatoes, beef broth, and cannellini beans.

Step 6

Add frozen corn, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, oregano, salt, and black pepper.

Step 7

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, covered, for about 20 minutes for flavors to meld.

Step 8

Stir the soup occasionally and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.

Step 9

Before serving, stir in fresh parsley for a touch of brightness.

Step 10

Ladle soup into bowls and serve hot, ideally with crusty bread on the side.
