I used this recipe as a base to use up left overs in my kitchen. I braised left over ny strip for about an hour. While that was going on, I chopped veggies.. I substituted frozen carrots for raw...steamed them in the MW then cut them. After sauteing onions/ celery, I added carrots and substituted minced garlic (about 1Tbsp). Then I added 1/4 to 1/2 c of red wine, let that cook off for 5 min and added abt 2 cups of tomato sauce (no diced tomato in the house). After 1 hour, I removed the steak from braising, chopped it into bite size pieces, and discarded broth (it had a burnt taste from the grilled steaks). I added it all into the pot with the chicken broth. I then added 2 cups of beef broth. I let it cook another 20 min, then added 1 can of black and 1 can of northern beans. I didn't want to used the white rice to pump up fiber content. Plus I didn't want to add another step to this easy soup. Yum! The leftover fairy strikes again. The red wine (or any wine for that matter) always makes soup pop...FYI.
