Introduction

We used to purchase the bagged stew, and the store stopped carrying it! As it was one of our go-to meals, we had to learn how to make it. You could easily use less potatoes and throw in more veggies to lower the calorie count. We used to purchase the bagged stew, and the store stopped carrying it!

    Incredible!
    As always this is one of our goto easy meals. Just don't eat it all right away, I think it gets better the second day. - 1/27/13
