Recipe(tried): Basic Vegetable Beef Soup for Crockpot

3/4 lb stew meat cubes
Cook about 30 min in just enough water to cover

approx. 3 or 4 med. potatoes, peeled & cut into bite size chunks
1 med. carrot peeled & thinly sliced
Cover with water & Bring to a boil & reduce to med. until veggies are barely tender

In crockpot combine potatoes, carrots, meat (may want to cut into smaller pieces)
Add 1 can whole kernal corn (drained) or 1/2 can corn and 1/2 can small green peas.
Add:
1 med bottle V-8 juice
1 can beef broth
salt & pepper to taste
1 teasp. worchestershire sauce

Cook on low 5-6 hrs or high 3-4 hrs until flavors are blended and potatoes are tender not soft.

Sometimes I add some cooked elbow maccaroni before serving.
Experiment with the seasonings you like best. If you like less tomato taste & more beef add another can of beef broth.

Think I'll make some this week-end before heading to the football game!
