This old-fashioned stew has a slightly sweet taste from the addition of canned corn. You can make the stew ahead of time and reheat it for a quick meal later on. - Clair Long, Destrehan, Louisiana

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 small green pepper, chopped
  • 2-1/2 cups water
  • 1 can (11 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained

  • 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
