How to Make Shepherd’s Pie Soup
Step 1: Cook the Meat
In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the ground beef or lamb and cook until browned, breaking it into small pieces with a spoon. Season with salt and pepper.
Once cooked, remove the meat with a slotted spoon and set it aside. Leave the drippings in the pot for added flavor.
Step 2: Sauté the Vegetables
Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Sauté for about 5–7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened and the onions are translucent.
Stir in the garlic, thyme, and tomato paste. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
Step 3: Build the Broth
