Grandma Morris' Stew

1 lb ground beef
1 onion, chopped
1 lrg can of tomato juice
10 carrots, washed, peeled and sliced
10 potatoes, washed and sliced
½ head of cabbage
water

Brown the ground beef with the chopped onion and drain well. In a large pot, combine the ground beef and onion with everything else. After you empty the can of tomato juice, refill it with water and pour that in, too. Bring it to a boil, then lower the heat, cover it with a lid and let it simmer for 5 hours. (I haven't tried this in the slow cooker, but I think it would work well to turn it on high for an hour, then on low for the rest of the day.)
