Pantry Soup--Low-Carb Version



12 one-cup servings, 3.9 net carbs each

There's a picture here...can you see it?  I thought not.  My picture uploading ability has been compromised!  I'll try again later.

Ingredients:
2 pint jars (home-canned) beef chunks, with liquid
2 pint jars (home-canned) beef broth—4 cups
2 cups raw cabbage, shredded
2 cups (about 3 medium) diced turnips
1 can RO*TEL Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies
1 can Hunt’s Diced Tomatoes
1 can Allen’s Cut Okra
1 TBS Hidden Valley Ranch dressing powder

Directions:
Prep your veggies—peel & dice the turnips, open the bag of slaw mix (use ½ the bag), and open the cans.
Place all ingredients in a large Crock-Pot and cook on high for about 6-8 hours (you’ll want the turnips to cook through, and that takes a while).

Notes:
Of course you can use commercially-canned beef broth and raw stew meat.  I used what I had on-hand.  I used home-canned as often as possible--I know what goes in it.
