We loved this hearty, delicious stew. Reminded me of my childhood - coming home to the scent of my mom's homemade stew on cold days. I agree with the post about using 2 cups of water, thanks for that tip.

I make this recipe often when friends are coming over and I need an easy fuss-free dinner. I start it in the morning and go about my day and it's always great at dinner. Our friends love it because it is different than the tomato base recipe she uses, so even if they've recently eaten stew at their house, they don't mind eating it again at mine because it has great flavor, but is different enough from theirs. This is my "go-to" recipe for stew.

Very good but needs more liquid. Next time I would increase water to 2 cups and I would add 2-4 Tablespoons instant potatoes to make a gravy while it cooks.

The recipe was quite delicious. However, I wished it would have made a more gravy type sauce then it did.

You only have to be subscribed to any one magazine to access subscriber only recipes. You don't have to be subscribed to the magazine the recipe was originally in.

I find your site extrmeley NON-User Friendly. I'm signed into the site, but I can't print this recipe. And why is everything only on the left side of the page? It's very confusing and takes up a lot of room. If you don't want people to see some of the recipes if they aren't subscribed to the magazine, then put them in a separate place. Not many people can afford to be subscribed to more than one or maybe two of the magazines.
