*If I’m home while this is cooking, I will stir it all together after a few hours and also wait and add the potatoes just a few hours before serving so they aren’t too mushy! I was able to get everything on sale this past week and this makes enough for 2 meals for us.
picture missing here LOL – it was so good we ate it all before I remembered to take a picture!

Cold weather and stew- very good. Remember, the TMTT giveaway is next week. I don’t want you to miss it.
Yum, that sounds so good. And it doesn’t sound complicated so that’s always good in my book.

This looks good. I’ve never made it before, but it sounds familiar.
