Old Fashion Vegetable Soup

This recipe is from Marie Boyer. I love to make it when I have leftover roast.

1 lb. stew meat or 2 c. leftover roast
4 cups water
1 chopped onion
2-3 sliced carrots
2 stalks celery sliced
2 cups canned tomatoes-I use a 1 qt. jar
4 tsp beef bouillion
1 bay leaf
pepper to taste

Combine all ingredients and cook until vegetables are tender. Remove bay leaf and serve.
