In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned and no longer pink.
Add aromatics:
Stir in garlic, along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add vegetables and broth:
Mix in the chopped cabbage, diced tomatoes with juice, celery, carrots, kidney beans, beef broth, and Italian seasoning. Stir well to combine.
Simmer:
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat. Cover and let simmer gently for about 1 hour, until the vegetables are tender and the flavors come together.
Serve:
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
