This soup is SO good to have around on a cold, winter's day or just any time of the year. I tend to tripple the recipe so that my family and I can have this on hand in the freezer and eat it for quick lunches or dinners. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Ingredients:
1 lb stew meat, diced |
1 large onion, diced |
3 stalks celery, chopped |
1/4 cup celery leaves |
2 garlic cloves, minced |

6 -10 cups water (i start with 6 and add as needed) |
