Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup carrots, diced
- 1 stalk celery, diced
- 1 lb ground beef
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/ 4 tsp pepper to taste (omit pepper for AIP)
- 2 cups tomato sauce (sub nomato sauce for AIP, see notes)
- 2 1/2 cups beef broth
- 1 cup orzo
- 2 tsp oregano
- 2 tsp dried basil
- 2 tbsp parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Using a large, deep pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Saute the onion and garlic until the onion is lightly translucent. Add the carrot and celery and saute for 2-3 minutes to lightly soften.
- Add the ground beef, season with salt and pepper and crumble until browned.
- Pour in the sauce, broth, orzo, oregano, and basil. Stir to combine and bring to a low boil. Reduce to a medium-low simmer and allow to simmer for 10 minutes. Stir often to prevent the orzo from sticking.
- Once cooked, remove from the heat and serve topped with chopped parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
Notes
Nomato sauce will work for this dish, though it will make a much less red sauce in color.
