Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 pounds stew beef
  • 1 small yellow onion (diced)
  • 2 ribs celery (diced)
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 large sweet potatoes (peeled and diced)
  • 2 large carrots (peeled and diced)
  • 2 cups cabbage (sliced)
  • 14.5 oz diced tomatoes (drained)
  • 32 oz beef broth
  • 3 cups water
  • 2 teaspoons thyme (dried)
  • 1 teaspoons basil (dried)
  • 1/2 teaspoons parsley (dried)

Instructions

  • Warm oil over medium heat in a large soup pot. Add in stew beef and cook until browned. Add in diced yellow onion and celery and cook until tender.
  • Once veggies are tender add in minced garlic and sautee for 30 seconds before adding in tomato paste.
  • Next add in peeled and diced sweet potatoes, carrots, cabbage, and diced tomatoes.
  • Add beef broth and water to your soup. Season with all seasons then allow to cook on medium heat for 40-45 minutes or until potatoes are tender and beef is fully cooked.

Notes

  • Tip: When browning your meat make sure to not overcook. Cooking it in the soup will keep it tender and soft but overcooking could cause it to become tough.
