Instructions

In a large soup pot or Dutch oven pot, add olive oil and heat it over medium-high heat.
Add onions, carrots, and celery, and sauté until softened.
Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Then, add tomato paste, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper and stir well until all is combined.
Add ground beef and cook until the meat is not pink anymore.
Add diced tomatoes, beef broth, potatoes and bay leave and stir all well.
Bring the soup to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Adjust seasoning as needed. Remove bay leaves and garnish with parsley. Enjoy!

Notes

Dice the vegetables into small, even-sized pieces for uniform cooking.
Salt lightly at the beginning and adjust after the flavors have had time to build.
Use a salad spinner to wash and dry the chopped vegetables.
Brown the ground beef for extra flavor and remove excess grease if needed.
