Introduction

This is a hearty beef and vegetable stoup (stew/soup) made with medium salsa for a "kick." It was a tad spicy for me, but my husband and two grown sons said it is a "keeper." The salsa contains enough salt to flavor the entire pot of stew.
Makes 18 cups, yielding 12 servings; 1 1/2 cup = 1 serving
