Vegetable Beef Soup (freezer meal)

1 lb ground sirloin, browned, drained & rinsed
2 carrots, sliced
2 stalks celery, sliced
2 cups frozen corn
2 cups frozen green beans
3-4 potatoes, peeled & diced
46 oz can tomato juice
3 cups water
3 tsp chili powder
1 oz Worcestershire sauce
1 Tbsp salt, if desired (I do not add this unless I use no salt added tomato juice)
2 bay leaves

To prepare: Place all ingredients in a large stock pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat & simmer, covered for at least an hour. Remove & discard bay leaces. Divide soup into freezer-safe containers. ...
