Oxtail Soup

"This is another old family recipe. You may have seen the disgusting looking, cheap oxtails at the grocery. This is a good way to use them. It make a wonderful, rich, meaty broth which is wonderful on a cold, winter day."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Omaha NE and am an audiologist at Boys Town National Research Hospital. I love to cook, as does my husband Michael. In the summer, we have a large garden and try to use alot of fresh fruits/veggies in our cooking. We have a 5 year old daughter, Kate and almost 2 year old son Sam and enjoy introducing them to new foods. One of their favorites is fresh pesto smeared on crackers!
