Ann Atwood's Vegetable Beef Soup
a pound of lean beef, cubed
at least one large can of tomatoes, maybe some tomato juice as well
half a large or one small onion
lots of chopped celery Ann: "You can't have too much celery")
can of corn, drained
diced potatoes (one or two, peeled)
2 or 3 bay leaves
black pepper to taste
green peas or green beans about 1 cup
anything else that looks like it belongs in that day's soup
Put all of this in a big pot on the back burner. Cook on low heat for a couple of hours or more.
Serve this to everybody who comes for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner while they wait for the big meal. Or just have it on a cold rainy day. It's good with cornbread especially.
