Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground venison or lean ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
  • 1 large onion
  • 2 potatoes
  • 3 ribs celery
  • 3 small sweet peppers
  • 1 head broccoli
  • 12 cups beef broth or however you want to stretch things
  • 6 cups water
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Brown venison in a skillet until cooked through. Set aside.
  • Peel and dice onion. Chop potatoes into 1-inch pieces.
  • Dice celery and peppers. Cut broccoli florets into bite-sized pieces.
  • In Dutch oven or large stockpot, add oil. Once shimmering, add veggies and stir to coat. Saute until softened.
  • Add venison to veggies, then pour in broth and water.
  • Simmer for an hour or until ready to serve. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

  • Use any type of red meat here or even ground turkey.
  • Use whatever veggies you have on hand. Carrots are a great addition.
  • Feel free to toss in frozen peas, too.
  • Any broth will work. I like venison or beef with red meat dishes but any type will work.
