A hearty and easy ground beef crockpot stew packed with vegetables and savory flavors, perfect for a comforting meal with minimal effort.
Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
2 stalks celery, sliced
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 cup beef broth
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef and cook until the onion is softened, about 3 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Transfer the cooked ground beef mixture to the crockpot.
Add the sliced carrots, diced potatoes, sliced celery, diced tomatoes with their juice, beef broth, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the crockpot. Stir to combine.
Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the vegetables are tender.
About 15 minutes before serving, stir in the frozen peas and cover again to allow them to heat through.
Serve the stew hot.
