17. Keto Vegetable Beef Soup
Ingredients
- 2 lbs of steak, fat trimmed and cubed into ½ inch chunks – I used strip steak but any cut will do
- 32 ounces of low-sodium beef broth or beef bone broth
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3-4 stalks of celery sliced, about ¾ cups
- 1 large zucchini, quartered and sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup frozen green beans
- 1 cup frozen okra (yes, really!)
- 24 ounce jar of San Marzano tomatoes, or other organic chopped tomatoes
- 2 bay leaves
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cups water
- Salt, pepper, garlic powder to season the steak
Instructions
- In a large pot, brown the seasoned steak chunks for 3-4 minutes over medium-high heat.
- Remove meat and add chopped garlic, onions and celery and turn heat down to medium.
- Saute for 4-5 minutes until softened.
- Add meat back in and all additional ingredients.
- Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low and cover and continue to cook for 30 minutes.
- Remove bay leaves before serving.
- If you like a little heat in your soup, feel free to add some hot sauce or pepper flakes.
