I am not a big fan of beef but over the years I have picked up a few beef related recipes that my family enjoys. Years ago, when I was a newlywed. My mother in law called frequently to see that I was feeding her son properly and so I acquired many cookbooks along the way. I found a beef stew recipe in one of the books but it had a few ingredients that didn’t sit well with me. Over time I have made a few small changes to that recipe because it has less sodium and my kids love it. Soups/Stews are simple staples in our home since I can batch cook them for a few days.
Batch cooking has become a hobby to me since it not only saves me time, it also saves me money on our weekly food budget. Below is the recipe and I hope you enjoy. Please leave feedback on how it turns out for you. Thanks for stopping by!
