Add beef to a large pot and sprinkle in garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Over medium high heat, break been up into small pieces with a wooden spoon.

Add onions, carrots, and potatoes, stirring well.

Combine tomato paste, water, and beef base in a large bowl and stir well with a whisk.

Add tomato sauce to pot, stirring well.

Bring down to a low boil and cook for 10 minutes. Check to see if potatoes and carrots are tender. Cook longer, as needed.

Once potatoes and carrots are tender, add tomatoes, corn, green beans, and peas. You can drain them if you feel you have enough liquid.

Cook 20 minutes on low heat, stirring occasionally.

Serve with crusty bread and enjoy!
