Ingredients 

• Stew Meat: I use Organic Prairie Stew Meat.
• Beef Broth: I use Kettle & Fire Beef Broth, use code MIMIBAKESCOOKIES for 20% off your order.
• Mushrooms: I use organic baby Bella mushrooms. You can use any kind of mushrooms you like.
• Leeks: I’m using leeks in this recipe as I got them in my farm box last week. If you don’t have leeks you can use onions or scallions too. 
• Kale: Organic kale is optional for serving. If you want to add kale, I just add a few kale leaves into the bowl before serving the soup on top. The hot soup will cook the kale perfectly. It’s best serve it like this if you want kale, as adding it to the soup can make it incredibly soft and overcooked, especially if you have leftovers. Organic spinach also works here too!

Easy Substitutions 

• I use organic stew meat here, but you can also make this with chicken as well if you don’t want beef.
• You can also substitute the bone broth for chicken bone broth or even just chicken stock as well. If you're using chicken stock you just won't get the protein that bone broth offers.
• The kale is optional, feel free to skip if you prefer. You can also use spinach in place of kale. 

How to Make Healthy Beef Soup With Leeks

1. Slice the leaks. Cut the mushrooms into quarters, and trim broccoli florets or cut into small bite sized pieces, if needed. Remove the kale leaves from the stems if you are going to serve with kale.

2. Chop broccoli florets into small pieces if you have large ones. Set all veggies aside.

3. Add the stew meat to a large mixing bowl and generously salt and pepper.

4. Put a 4-quart Dutch oven over medium/high heat and add the beef. Sear all sides of the beef.

5. Add the bone broth and turn the heat down to a low simmer. Put the lid on a simmer on the stove for 1 to 2 hours or until the beef is tender to your liking.

6. Add the veggies and stir to combine. Place the lid on and cook on low/medium heat for 10 to 20 minutes or until the veggies are cooked to your liking.

Serving Suggestions

I love serving this with fresh bread! Try my Lemon Rosemary Sourdough Bread, Organic French Baguettes With Instant Yeast, or Honey Butter Dinner Rolls.
