Meet the Cook: My family asks for this stew just about every week. But it's perfect for company, too - it's easy, and everyone comments on the cheese in the dumplings. -Jackie Riley, Garrettsville, Ohio

I made this for dinner tonight and it was fantastic. My family isn't a huge fan of the dumplings so I added potatoes to the stew and omitted the dumplings. Great flavor, this will definitely be a staple at our house over the winter!
