Vegetable Beef Soup

This is a staple from when I was growing up. I absolutely love when my Mom or Grama make it, but I do pretty good too.

1 beef pot roast, cubed
10 cups water
4 large potatoes, peeled and quartered
½ bag baby carrots

½ cup celery, diced

Variations:
You can use a beef soup bone for flavor if you'd rather not have the meat or just want a little bit of meat. Just simmer for couple of hours and remove before adding vegetables. You can also use rice or barley in place of egg noodles.

ENJOY!!
