- Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables. In addition to the carrots, celery, and onion, you could also add potatoes, turnips, parsnips, or rutabagas.
- Season your stew generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. You can also add a bay leaf or two for extra flavor.
- Simmer your stew for at least 1 hour. This will allow the flavors to develop and the beans to become tender.
- Serve your stew with cornbread, biscuits, or rice.
