2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cups fresh sliced carrots
2 cups potatoes, wedges chopped
2 cups beef broth
16 ounces refrigerated prepared roast beef in gravy
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

Steps:

In large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until crisp tender, about 3-5 minutes. Add carrots; cook and stir for 2-3 minutes longer. Add potato wedges and beef broth; cover and bring to a simmer.
Meanwhile, cut roast beef into 1" chunks; add to soup along with gravy from pkg, thyme, and beer. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until beef is hot and stew is slightly thickened. In small bowl, combine cornstarch and water and blend well.
