Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 medium onions chopped
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 28 oz can diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup diced potatoes
  • 3 carrots chopped
  • 1 cup celery chopped
  • 1 cup frozen green beans I used fresh!
  • 1 cup dry red wine
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil I used oregano and it was still delicious!
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • salt and pepper for seasoning

Instructions
 

  • In a large dutch oven melt the butter and cook the onion with some salt and pepper until it sweats. If you double the recipe learn from me and just use 2 dutch ovens!
  • Add the beef and garlic and brown the meat with some more salt and pepper.
  • Once it's browned add in the broth, tomatoes, potatoes, celery, carrots, green beans, wine, basil and thyme.
  • Simmer for 1 hour.
  • Check your seasoning and add more salt and pepper as needed!
