Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef Use lean ground beef for a healthier option.
  • 1 cup diced carrots
  • 1 cup peas Frozen peas can be used.
  • 1 cup corn Frozen corn works well too.
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth Ensure it's gluten-free if needed.

  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups mashed potatoes For topping; can be homemade or store-bought.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot over medium heat, brown the ground beef until it’s cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onions, minced garlic, diced carrots, peas, and corn to the pot. Cook until the vegetables are tender.
  3. Pour in the beef broth and bring everything to a gentle simmer.
  4. Stir in the dried thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper, mixing well to combine.
  5. Let the soup simmer for about 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
  6. Serve the hot soup topped with a generous scoop of mashed potatoes.

Notes

Feel free to experiment with frozen veggies if you're in a pinch; they work just as well. For a rustic presentation, serve in hearty bowls with mashed potatoes in the center. Pair with crusty bread or a simple green salad.
