Day 16: Beef and Red Potato Stew
Yesterday after church, a friend and I combined ingredients we had on hand and made this yummy stew! One of the things I love about soups/stews, is that just about anything (within reason) can be put together into a pot and ends up tasting amazing. It’s a quick and simple way to get a hearty meal, for little cost.
We served ours over brown rice, but you could just eat it plain. And, of course, serve it with some homemade biscuits and jam. (I’ll share my favorite biscuit recipe with you soon).
