My daughter, Marise, can survive on just this Beef Vegetable Medley Soup. She eats it like it was the best thing that happened to her taste buds. This is one of those lazy dishes that you can simmer in a crock pot or ordinary pot.
I’m excited to share with you my first YouTube video featuring this recipe!
