Our family loves this hearty stew. I like to serve steaming helping in old-fashioned soup plates with thick crusty slices of homemade bread. To get the 11 cups of chopped cabbage for this stew, you'll need to start with a small head of cabbage, about 2 to 2-1/2 pounds. Or for quicker prep, substitute coleslaw mix from the produce department.—Karen Ann Bland, Gove, Kansas

I had to change the recipe a little because my husband does not like spicy things, so omitted the tomatoes with chili and used 1 tsp. chili powder. Still was a great tasting stew which surprised me with the taste because of the beans.

This is a hit on a cold winter day! It reheats well, too. I change something each time -- not the fault of the recipe -- just that I am a cumpulsive "tinkerer!" LOL
