Beef Stew Soup

Ingredients

• 2 tbsps olive oil
• 1 cup beef stock
• 2 cups whole mushrooms
• 1 lb sirloin beef tips
• 15 oz crushed tomatoes
• 1/2 lb onions

Directions

1. In a pot, cook beef tips in olive oil until brown. Do not worry if they are not cooked through yet because they will finish cooking later.
2. Remove beef from pot with a slotted spoon leaving juices to cook the onions and mushrooms. Cook until onions are clear.
3. Add can of crushed tomatoes and let simmer for about 5 minutes.
4. Add back the beef and add beef stock. Remember that this is a soup, so do not drown the beef and vegetables in the broth.
5. Add salt and peeper to taste and let simmer for another 10 minutes.
6. Note: if you are serving this with someone not counting carbs or on a diet, this tastes great over mashed potatoes!
