Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed

  • 4 medium carrots, diced

  • 4 stalks celery, chopped

  • 1 medium zucchini, diced

  • 1 medium onion, chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, grated

  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary, finely chopped

  • 1 (15 ounce) can chopped tomatoes

  • 2 large Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cubed

  • 1 cup chopped Swiss chard

  • 3 ½ cups beef stock

  • 1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add carrots, celery, zucchini, and onion; saute until the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and rosemary; cook, stirring so the garlic doesn't burn, for another 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, potatoes, and chard.

  2. Bring to a simmer and cook until the chard is wilted, about 5 minutes. Add beef stock and beans, bring to a simmer, and cook until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.

Cook's Note:

You can use kale instead of Swiss chard, and 5 small Yukon Gold potatoes instead of 2 large.
