Vegetable Beef Soup Recipe

How about a Saturday blog entry containing the directions for...

Wayne's Fabulous Vegetable Beef Soup

1/4 head of cabbage, diced into bite size
2 large potatoes, diced into bite size
2 large turnips, diced into bite size
1 1/2 cups diced celery
1 16-ounce bag of mini carrots cut into bite size
1 zucchini sguash diced into bite size
1 yellow squash diced into bite size
1 large yellow or white onion cut into bite size
1 whole garlic bulb, peeled and cut into bite size
1 15-ounce can mixed vegetables, drained
1 14.5-ounce can of diced tomatoes
1 14.5-ounce can of "hot" diced tomatoes (if you like it hot)
1 large can crushed tomatoes
2 large cans of water
3 bay leaves
2 Tbs soy sauce
2 Tbs steak sauce
1 Tbs hot sauce
3 beef bouillon cubes

Put all ingredients into pressure cooker and cook 30 minutes after control jiggles (or cook in large pot on top of stove). This soup is very rich in flavor. You may add any kind of meat if you wish, but it is very good without it. Enjoy with biscuits or cornbread.

Thanks to Wayne for sharing this family recipe of his for vegetable beef soup that's pleased thousands of palates over the years.
