Butternut Beef Stew image

I tweaked this recipe I found in a magazine to suit my taste for sweet and spicy. I found that pureeing the tomatoes added a thicker consistency without using flour.-Erin Lembke, Monroe, Washington

The beef was a bit tough and chewy. I think I might have cooked it for too long.

The stew was a bit bland for my liking. I had to add some extra salt and pepper to give it some flavor.

This stew was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less butternut squash or maybe a different type of squash altogether.

I wasn't sure how the butternut squash would taste in this stew, but I'm so glad I tried it! It added a lovely sweetness and creaminess to the dish. I will definitely be making this again.

I made this stew in my slow cooker and it turned out perfectly. The meat was so tender and the vegetables were cooked through but still had a bit of a bite to them. I served it over mashed potatoes and it was a delicious, comforting meal.
