• 1 onion, quartered
• 2-3 garlic cloves, minced

• 2 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
• 2 potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
• 2 ears of corn, husked and cut into thirds
• 1 zucchini, sliced

Instructions:

1. In a large pot, combine the beef chunks, quartered onion, minced garlic, quartered tomatoes, and enough water to cover everything. Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat.
