Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound beef stew meat, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 carrots, peeled and sliced into rounds
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 potatoes, diced (Yukon Gold or russet)
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 bay leaves

Instructions

  1. Chop the carrots, celery, potatoes, onion, and garlic. Cut the beef stew meat into bite-sized chunks if not already done.
  2. Layer the beef stew meat at the bottom of the crockpot and season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Add the chopped vegetables—carrots, celery, potatoes, and onion—on top of the beef.
  4. Pour in the beef broth and canned diced tomatoes (including the liquid). Stir gently to combine.
  5. Add minced garlic, thyme, and bay leaves for flavor. Stir lightly.
  6. Cover the crockpot with the lid and set it to cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.
  7. About 30 minutes before the cooking time is up, stir in the frozen peas and let them cook until tender.
  8. Taste the soup and adjust the seasonings as needed. Remove bay leaves before serving.
  9. Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy! Serve with crusty bread or crackers for an extra cozy touch.

Notes

[‘Brown the beef in a skillet before adding it to the crockpot for enhanced flavor.’, ‘Cut vegetables evenly to ensure they cook uniformly.’, ‘Add frozen peas at the end to keep them bright and tender.’, ‘Mash a few cooked potatoes to naturally thicken the broth if needed.’, ‘Adjust seasoning after cooking to taste.’]
