Very hearty and packed with nutrition. This can also be made with oxtails or shin beef.

1 cup parsnip
1 cup carrot
1 cup leek
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons parsley
1/4 teaspoon thyme
8 cups water
Directions
  1. Put the meat into a 6 quart soup pot and cover with water to 2 inches over the top, filling the pot a little over the halfway mark.

  2. Bring to a boil and skim off all the foam that rises to the top.

  3. Dice the vegetables. Wash the leeks after chopping.

  4. When no more foam rises, add all the other ingredients.

  5. Reduce the heat to a slow simmer, cover and cook for 3 hours.
