Aunt Georgia's Vegetable Soup

1 lb short rib or stew meat (if you get stew meat, you will want to buy a soup bone for flavor)
1 small head cabbage, shredded
2 medium onions, chopped
3 stalks celery with leaves, chopped
3 large turnips, peeled and diced
2- 8 oz cans tomato sauce
1- 6 oz can V-8, hot and spicy juice (I put in 2 or 3)
2 beef bouillon cubes
1 tsp marjoram
1 tsp basil
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp thyme
2 Tabl parsley
salt and pepper to taste
2 bags frozen soup vegetables
1 or 2 cans green beans (optional)

Cook bone & meat in water for 1 1/2 hours. Add cabbage, onion, celery and turnips. Cook 1 hour. Add tomato sauce, juice, bouillon and spices. Simmer 1 hour. Add 2 bags or frozen vegetables and green beans. (Aunt Georgia actually used stew vegetables, but I found that they didn't do well, they stayed hard in the soup. I like the soup vegetables better, but it is up to you.)
