Second, I chose a large skillet, and heated it in olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

The fourth step:

I repeated the same process with the rest of the meat, and when I finished, I put the roast beef in a plate and covered it with aluminum foil to keep it warm.

Fifth step:

In this step, I put the chopped onion, sliced ??carrot and celery in the skillet and sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes, until the vegetables are completely tender.

Sixth step:

Next I added 2 teaspoons of minced garlic and cooked the vegetables for an additional 30 seconds.

Seventh step:

Then I transferred the cooked meat and vegetables to a large saucepan, along with the canned tomatoes, Italian seasoning, bay leaf, and seven to eight cups of beef broth, heated everything up, and brought it to a simmer over low heat. About 60 minutes, until meat is tender.

Eighth step:

Next I added the potato slices and continued to cook for another 20 minutes until the potatoes were tender.

Step 9:

Stir in the corn, peas and green beans and cook for 5 minutes over medium heat. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 10:

Finally, I removed the bay leaf, set it aside, and served the soup warm with a sprinkling of parsley over each serving.

Enjoy !
