Alice's Revised Vegetable Soup

2 point Vegetable Soup recipe from a special member who makes this on a regular basis.

In a small amount of olive oil, sauté 1 large chopped onion , about 1 cup chopped celery, and 1 cup sliced carrots until onions begin to brown.
In crock pot put 2 cans beef broth (I use low sodium), 1 can diced tomatoes (also low sodium), 1 can pinto beans (drained), 2 cups shredded cabbage, and some frozen green beans. Add 1Ž2 tsp. basil, 1Ž4 tsp. oregano or Italian seasoning, 1 tsp. minced garlic, pepper and salt if desired. Add the sauted veggies.
Cook on high for about an hour and low until time to serve. Makes 8 servings.

Enjoy! Thank you Alice, Have A Happy Day!!!

Welcome

Welcome to my new blog. I hope to keep you informed with up to date happenings in my meetings. I will try to post some motivating items, hopefully shared by you. I will also try and put some of the positive sayings and ideas shared in meetings. Hopefully I will post some recipes that are yummy and are favorites. Life happens and some weeks are busier than others so bare with me if I fall behind. I am new at doing this so it will be very simple at least in the beginning.
I will close for now with this thought (our saying for March). "If you kinda do it, it kinda works, if you really do it, it really works."  Have a Happy Day!!!
Hugs, Vickie
