Directions

Prep 10 minCook 40 min
  1. 1

    Melt the coconut oil in a large stock pot over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, and carrots, and sauté until the onion is translucent.

  2. 2

    While the onion mixture is cooking, combine the ground beef with oregano, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix with your hands until well combined, then form into 1-inch meatballs and set aside.

    Add the beef broth and tomato paste to the pot, stirring until the paste is dissolved. Carefully add the meatballs to the pot, spacing them about 1/2 inch apart.

  4. 4

    Cover the pot and let the meatballs simmer on medium to low heat for about 30 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

  5. 5

    Remove the lid and add the green beans and broccoli. Cook until the vegetables are tender.
