Ingredients
2poundsStewing Beef
128 oz. canDiced Tomatoesnot drained
1White Onionchopped
1227g package Mushroomssliced
1.5cupsCelerychopped
8cupsBeef Broth
6cupsFrozen Mixed Vegetables (i.e. carrots, peas, corn, green beans)
Mix it up with your hands until all the chunks are nicely coated.
In a large soup pot over medium heat, heat 1 tbsp of avocado oil. Once hot, add the beef and cook a few minutes until browned on all sides.
We just want a nice browning here, we're not aiming for them to be all the way cooked through. Work in batches if you have to, adding another tablespoon of oil if necessary.
Transfer the browned beef to a paper towel lined plate.
In the same pot, add the remaining oil. Add the onions, celery, mushrooms, and garlic.
Cook until soft, a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the beef back into the pot along with the Italian seasoning.
Stir to combine and until the seasonings release their flavours, about a minute.
Add the beef broth, diced tomatoes and their juices, bay leaves, parmesan cheese rind, salt, and pepper.
Stir until combined and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, covered, for 45 minutes or until the beef is tender.
Add the frozen veggies and the parsley and simmer an additional 5 minutes.
Season to taste with salt and pepper and garnish with extra fresh chopped parsley, if desired.
