Old-Fashioned Vegetable Soup
Ingredients
6 cups of beef broth
2 onions, thinly sliced
2 carrots, thinly sliced
4 celery stalks, cut in fine bits
1 turnip, cut in small dice
3 leeks, thinly sliced
12 string beans, cut in small pieces
1/4 head of cabbage, shredded
2 potatoes, cut in small dice
1 cup of green peas
1 cup of broken macaroni bits
Directions
- Wash the vegetables carefully and peel the onions, carrots, turnip and potatoes. Cut all ino slices or bits as suggested above. Put the beef broth in a large kettle, taste for seasoning and add salt if necessary. Bring to a boil and add the vegetables. Cover the pan, lower the flame and simmer gently until the vegetables are done and well blended with the broth. This will take about 1/2 to 3/4 hour. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese and crisp buttered toast.
