• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Break the meat into crumbles with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess grease if necessary.

Step 3

Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Pour in the beef broth, canned diced tomatoes (with their juices), and tomato paste. Stir to combine.

Step 6

Add the drained and rinsed kidney beans and great northern beans to the pot.

Step 7

Stir in the dried oregano, dried basil, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 8

Bring the soup to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Taste the soup and adjust seasonings with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 10

Serve hot in bowls, optionally garnished with fresh parsley or accompanied by crusty bread.
