Cooking Instructions for Banchero's Restaurant Soup Recipe
    Prepare the Vegetables
    1. Wash all vegetables thoroughly. Peel the carrots and potatoes. Dice and chop everything into small pieces for even cooking.
    Heat the Oil
    1. Place a large soup pot over medium heat. Add olive oil and allow it to warm before adding vegetables.
    Cook the Onion
    1. Add diced onion to the pot. Stir frequently and cook for about five minutes until soft and lightly golden.
    Add Celery and Carrots
    1. Stir in celery and carrots. Cook for another five minutes. This step builds the soup's rich flavor foundation.
    Add Garlic
    1. Add minced garlic and stir continuously for one minute. The garlic should become fragrant without turning brown.
    Pour in the Broth
    1. Slowly add the beef broth. Stir well and scrape any flavorful bits from the bottom of the pot.
    Add Remaining Ingredients
    1. Add potatoes, green beans, tomatoes, cooked ground beef, thyme, parsley, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
    Simmer the Soup
    1. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for about 45 minutes until vegetables become tender.
    Check the Seasoning
    1. Taste the soup carefully. Add additional salt or pepper if needed. Remove the bay leaf before serving.
    Garnish and Serve
    1. Ladle the hot soup into serving bowls. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top and serve immediately while warm.
