Hobo Stew Bowl Recipe

Hobo Stew Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Ingredients

   Wash and peel the potatoes and carrots. Cut the potatoes into bite-sized cubes and the carrots into thin slices. Dice the green bell pepper and onion, and mince the garlic cloves.

2. 2

   Cook the Ground Beef

   In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.

3. 3

   Sauté the Vegetables

   Add the diced onions, minced garlic, green bell pepper, and sliced carrots to the pot with the beef. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften.

4. 4

   Add Remaining Ingredients

   Stir in the cubed potatoes, diced tomatoes (with juice), beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and bay leaf. Mix well.

5. 5

   Simmer the Stew

   Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 30-40 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are tender.

6. 6

   Serve

   Remove the bay leaf before serving. Ladle the stew into bowls and enjoy hot.
