Cabbage, Green Bean, New Potato boil

I was walking a few days ago and thought that I simply must use up my batch of new potatoes, and that half  cabbage in the fridge.   I remembered I also had some slices of low-sodium Montreal smoked meat (similar to pastrami I guess). So when I returned home, I filled my dutch pot with:

 2 cups of low-sodium chicken stock
 2 cups of water
1/2 cabbage, sliced
10 Montreal smoked meat slices, chopped (can use any smoked meat)
 2 cloves of minced garlic
 1 chopped onion
 1 1/2 tsp of dried basil
 2 cups of frozen green beans

I brought the pot to a boil and simmered everything, partially covered,  for about half an hour. It was delicious!  M said it looked like a flower arrangement!  It's great the next day for a 'leftovers' lunch.
