01 Step

In a large stockpot or Dutch oven, crumble the ground beef over medium-high heat. Cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink. This should take about 7-10 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.
02 Step

Add the diced carrots, chopped celery, and onion to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, approximately 5 minutes.

Stir in the cubed potatoes, drained corn, drained green beans, undrained peas, tomato sauce, and crushed tomatoes. Season generously with freshly ground black pepper. Add the bay leaf and dried thyme.

If the mixture seems too thick, add 1/4 cup of water. You may need to add more water during cooking to maintain your desired consistency. Keep an eye on it!
05 Step

Bring the soup to a gentle simmer. Cover the pot and cook, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the potatoes are tender. This will take about 1 hour.
06 Step

Remove the bay leaf before serving. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve hot. Enjoy!
For a richer flavor, consider browning the ground beef with a tablespoon of olive oil.
Feel free to customize the vegetables according to your preference and what you have on hand. Zucchini, bell peppers, or even spinach would be delicious additions.
If you prefer a thicker soup, you can mash some of the potatoes against the side of the pot during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
This soup tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to meld together.
