I had roasted this same combination of root veggies and had leftovers so I added them to the stew towards the end with stew meat. Love this stew yum!!

Reviewed on Jan. 08, 2011 by Reeisme77

I used stew meat rather than ground beef bc that's what I had on hand. It was tasty. I had never had parsnips or rutabaga until now. The sweet potato is pured by the time the rest are done cooking. It was fine by me but if that wd bother you, add it to the pot late.
