Steps:

• Mash your tomatoes a bit with a potato masher or even just squeeze to make some juice to cook inches.
• Simmer all vegetables for 30 minutes or until veggies are soft enough to grind. (This is why your carrots, peppers, and celery need chopped small - I use the food processor).
• Once soft, run though a fine sieve, juicer, or food mill.
• Ladle into 1 quart jars leaving 3/4 inch of headspace and add to each quart:.
• 1/2 teaspoon salt. (optional).
• 1/2 teaspoon allspice.
• 1 teaspoon worcestershire (we use 1 tablespoon, but like it salty and bitey).
• dash of pepper (optional).
• Wipe rims clean, and place lids and rings onto jars. Process for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat V-8 and butter until butter melts. Add sugar, salt, herbs, ketchup, and cheese. Cool to lukewarm.
• Add lukewarm tomato mixture to 3 cups flour and yeast. Beat until smooth. Gradually add more flour until you have a soft workable dough. Knead 8 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in greased bowl, let rise until doubled (1 1/2 hours).
• Punch down and divide in half. Let rest 10 minutes, covered. Shape into loaves and place in well greased bread pans. Cover and let rise until doubled again (1 hour).
• Bake at 350 degrees F for 25 to 35 minutes.
