Poor Man'S Stew - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 c. broth
2 c. water
2 to 3 ribs celery
2 to 3 carrots
1 large onion
4 to 6 medium potatoes
6 c. water
6 c. instant rice
1 stick margarine
salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

In a pot (I use my crock-pot for this but you can cook on stove if you wish), mix broth, 2 cups water and vegetables that have been cut up.
Vegetable amounts depend upon the amount of broth that you have; these amounts are approximate.
Cook slowly until vegetables are tender.
Keep hot.
