I have made this twice, once as written and the second with a bunch of changes. As written this was OK for us. It was way to sweet for soup for us. The second time I made it I doubled the recipe and used crushed tomatoes instead of diced, beef broth instead of water, canned veggies instead of frozen (personal preference) and omitted the sugar. Everyone loved it this way. Both times I did not cook 10 hours as indicated, the first time I think I cooked it 6 and the second only 4. This is a good starter recipe with potential. Made for Fall PAC 2008.
