My Harvest Stew
Hello
Darlings,
Winter
is just about upon us, and for many in the northern states the weather probably
feels like Old Man Winter is already in their bones.
At
any rate, this is the time of the year when I like to cook a lot of chili, hot
savory stews and homemade soups.
Below
is my very own harvest stew recipe. It is
packed with a lot of beef and veggies that is nutritionally rich, warm, and
filling for combating those cold and
chilly evenings.
