Ingredients You’ll Need:

Before we jump into the cooking process, let’s gather our ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
  • 2 cups beef broth

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional for topping)

Instructions to Bring It All Together:

Now that we have everything ready, let’s dive into the recipe:

  1. In a large pot, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Make sure to break it up into crumbles. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
