Minestrone Soup

This is a completely unconventional recipe.  It took me years to work out the exact flavors but
it works consistently and I've never had anyone except non-meat eaters turn it down.

• 1 pot roast or 2 lbs beef stew meat

• 1/2 bottle red wine

• 1/4 to 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce

• 1 onion sliced

Place in Crock pot for 6 to 8 hours

When done chill broth to remove fat.

The next day place broth in large stockpot and add vegetables

• carrots

• green beans

• kidney beans

• zucchini

Add beef broth to cover and Italian seasoning

Add

• cabbage 

• elbow macaroni (use the low carb stuff -- it holds up to freezing better than any other product)

and bring to boil.  Put the meat back in a few minutes before done.  Adjust seasoning.  Serve
