Veggie Soup from Mom

Ingredients
-1 can of stewed tomatoes (15 oz.)
-1 49 oz. can of tomatoe juice
-1 small onion chopped
-carrots chopped
-green beans
-celery
-cabbage
-frozen corn
-frozen peas
-red potatoes cut up with peel still on, or regular potato. (peeled and cut into bite sizes)
-1 envelope lipton onion soup mix
- 1 - 1 1/2 lbs. red meat. (Can be stew meat cubes or round steak cut up into small bite sized peices)

Cut up meat and brown in a skillet with a very small amount of oil. Can also be browned in dutch oven that you cook the soup in, less pans to wash!

You can also throw in any veggies you want. I don't really measure the amount of each veggie but if I had to guess I'd say I put about a cup of each give or take.. If you want more cabbage then use more.
After browning the meat throw all of the other ingredients into the dutch oven and bring to a boil. Then turn it down to medium and let it simmer for an hour to an hour and a half or until the veggies are to your likeing.
Then to top it off, corn bread is excellent with it!
