Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ cup carrots diced
  • 1 stalk celery diced
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • 1/ 4 tsp pepper to taste omit pepper for AIP
  • 2 cups tomato sauce sub nomato sauce for AIP, see notes
  • 2 ½ 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.
