Beef Stew - 5 points
Why I Love This Recipe
I love this time of year. The air is chillier, I get to wear my warm sweaters, and I am constantly covered with my favorite Scooby Doo blankie on the couch for a good four months. :o) One of my favorite dinners to warm me up is beef stew. My husband is not that fond of stew, but I love it. I found this recipe from the WW cookbook, Turn Around Program Cookbook, and adapted it to fit our needs. It was very yummy! Next time I make this though, I will not use frozen veggies, like I did this time. The potatoes turned out mushy and the texture was less than desirable. Had I not been lazy, I woud have chopped up my own veggies! It was still good though!
