Ingredients

1½ pounds ground beef
1 medium onion chopped
2 cloves garlic minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon crushed rosemary
½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
4 carrots peeled and chopped
2 Yukon Gold potatoes cut into small cubes
1 14.5 ounce can fire-roasted tomatoes
1¼ cup low-sodium beef broth
2 tablespoons tomato paste
⅔ cup frozen peas
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

In a Dutch oven or heavy stockpot over medium heat, brown the ground beef. When it is about halfway through the browning process, add the onion and cook until the onion is soft and the ground beef is browned, approximately 5-6 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Reduce heat to low. Add garlic, oregano, parsley, rosemary, and thyme; cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the potatoes, carrots, and fire-roasted tomatoes.
In a bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the beef broth and tomato paste. Stir it into the pot. Simmer covered for 15 minutes.
Add the peas and simmer covered until the potatoes and carrots are tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

Store cooled leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for 3-4 days. Reheat on the stovetop over low heat or in the microwave at reduced power.
