- 1 large yellow onion, chopped
- 2 medium carrots, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a pie dish.
- In a Dutch oven, heat olive oil and sear beef until browned. Remove and set aside.
