Beefy Vegetable Soup image

I watched my Grandmother and Mother make a version of this soup for years. It was always delicious . I never had a recipe, but developed my own. It is hearty, tasty and filling. My family and friends love this soup.

  • 2. Add all ingredients except the tomato juice. Stir well and add the tomato juice.
