I found this on another website and it has become a family favourite. It's easy, healthy, and freezes really well. What more could you ask for? The original recipe calls for a small tin of sliced mushrooms, but I find a lot of people don't like mushies, so I leave them out.

Steps:
- Put ground beef, cabbage, onion, and mushroom in a large stock pot. Brown on medium high heat until ground beef is fully cooked and cabbage is wilted and almost transparent.
- Add red wine. Let cook 1 minute. Add water, beef base, and seasonings. Bring to a rolling boil. Add tomato paste, if using. Reduce heat and simmer until 10 minutes prior to serving.
- 15 minutes prior to serving add in bagged frozen vegetables. 10 minutes prior to serving add pasta (optional). Simmer until veggies and pasta* are done. Serve immediately.
- *Note: If you are not planing on eating the entire batch in one sitting it would be beneficial to cook pasta separately and add it to individual bowls of soup. Otherwise, the leftover pasta in the soup is beyond mushy and not at all appetizing! I hate overcooked pasta!

YUMMY BEEFY VEGETABLE SOUP
This is fabulous for a cool fall evening or winter dinner. IT doesnt take long to make it, and it tastes wonderful. My kids love it and ask for it often. I often buy marked-down roast/steaks in order to make this, as I am not familiar with cuts of meat and I have yet to buy something that isnt tender when the soup is completed.

BEEFY VEGETABLE SOUP - DEE DEE'S
This is a hearty soup full of flavor, vegetables and beef. I love this soup in cool fall weather or a on a rainy day. It reminds me of my mother and the way she made her soup. My soup has fresh canned tomatoes, canned peas and fresh okra right out of my summer garden. This doesn't mean you can't make this soup if you don't...

Steps:
- 1. Place steak in water, with chopped onion, salt & pepper, basil and beef bouillon. Bring to a boil, turn heat down and simmer until steak is tender. No, I haven't cut the meat up yet.
- 2. Once meat is tender start adding your vegetable; tomatoes, peas, corn, lima beans, okra and potatoes. Turn heat up to a medium heat until it starts to boil, lower heat and simmer until vegetables (potatoes in this case) are tender.
- 3. Now, take the steak out of the soup, place on a cutting board and cut in to bite size pieces, return pieces to soup. Stir the meat into soup and you are ready to eat! That is IF you have the cornbread ready!
- 4. Notes: There are a lot of variations for this soup; Chicken and chicken bouillon instead of beef,or browned ground beef, instead of field peas use english peas, you can add carrots and celery, instead of home canned vegetables use canned or frozen from the grocery store. My mother would put macaroni in this soup if we didn't have potatoes on hand. Or if you prefer rice, add rice instead of potatoes or macaroni. If you have leftover vegetables in the refrigerator toss em in. This makes a large pot of soup, what I have left I put in freezer containers and freeze for later use.
