2-1/2  qts              water
    2  tsps             salt
    1  small            onion
  1/2  cup              celery leaves

    2  slices           bacon, diced
1-1/2  cups             kidney beans, cooked or canned
  1/2  cup              green beans, fresh and chopped
  1/2  cup              celery, diced
  1/2  cup              green peas, fresh or frozen
  1/2  cup              zucchini, thinly sliced
  1/2  cup              carrots, thinly sliced
  1/4  cup              onion, diced
  1/4  cup              parsley, chopped
    1  clove            garlic, minced
  1/2  cup (2 oz)       elbow macaroni
    1  can (6 oz)       tomato paste
    1  cup              COCA-COLA
    1  Tbsp             olive oil
    1  Tbsp             Worcestershire sauce
    1  Tbsp             Italian seasoning
    1  tsp              salt
  1/4  tsp              black pepper

                        Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)


In a large pan, place the meat, water, salt, small onion, celery leaves, and bay
leaf.  Cover and simmer about 2-1/2 hours until the meat is tender. Remove the
meat.  Strain the broth (should measure 2 quarts).  Add ice cubes to the broth
to harden the fat and remove the fat.  Discard the fat.

Finely dice the meat, discarding any fat and bones (should be about 2 cups).  In
a 5 to 6 quart kettle or Dutch oven, combine the beef broth and the meat.  Place
over low heat while preparing the rest of the ingredients.

Pan-fry the bacon until crisp.  Add the bacon and the drippings and all the
remaining ingredients, except Parmesan cheese, to the broth.  Cover and simmer
about 30 minutes, until the vegetables and macaroni are tender.  Serve sprinkled
with Parmesan cheese, if desired.  Makes about 3 quarts.
