Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lb ground beef or ground turkey
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 3 cups beef or chicken broth
  • 1 large potato, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or milk
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Optional: Shredded cheddar cheese, for topping

Instructions

  • Cook the Meat: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add ground beef or turkey and cook until browned, breaking up any clumps as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  • Sauté Vegetables: Add diced onion, garlic, carrots, and celery to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until vegetables start to soften.
  • Add Broth and Potatoes: Pour in broth, add diced potatoes, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper, and stir well.
  • Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
  • Add Peas, Corn, and Cream: Stir in frozen peas, corn, and heavy cream or milk. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes until peas and corn are heated.
  • Serve: Adjust seasonings, ladle into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley, and add shredded cheddar if desired.

Notes

  • Substitute regular potatoes with sweet potatoes for a slight sweetness and added nutrients.
  • For a dairy-free option, use coconut or almond milk instead of heavy cream.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
