Beef and Veggie Soup

Hello lovelies! I finally am getting around to posting the final soup I have! It’s Beef Soup. I created this recipe by throwing in a bunch of tasty veggies and spices. Well here we go:

Beef and Veggie Soup

What you need:

·         Oil

·         2 lbs. stew ready beef

·         2 tsp. honey

·         6 cups beef broth (I made mine from bouillon cubes)

·         2 tsp. garlic

·         2 peppers

·         3 large and peeled carrots

·         3 cups onion

·         ½ can diced tomatoes or one fresh tomatoes

·         1/8 tsp. ground cumin

·         1 tsp. parsley

·         A sprinkle of bay leaves

·         ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon

What to do:

1.    In a skillet heat the oil. When it is hot enough place the beef and the honey in the skillet and cook the beef until it is red in the center.

2.   While the beef is cooking, prepare the broth and bring to a simmer.

3.   Chop the veggies (in green) and simmer in the broth.

4.   When beef is cooked drop into the broth, veggie combo and simmer 30 minutes.

5.   Add the spices and simmer for 15 minutes.

6.   Now let’s make the roux:

a.   For this you need 2 cups of the simmering broth and a cup of flour.

b.   In a separate pot whisk the flour and broth until blended

c.   Bring to a simmer and mix the roux into the soup.

7.   Simmer the soup for an hour and serve.
