Italian Hunters Stew image

Meet the Cook: This is an all-time favorite because it combines the satisfying ingredients of meat and vegetables with the flavor and textures of pasta dishes. My husband is a hunter besides, so on occasion I'll use elk or venison in place of the beef. We have three daughters and three grandchildren. Plus, my husband's the oldest of 14 children. Having 30 or 40 for holiday dinners isn't uncommon! -Ann Shorey, Sutherlin, Oregon

This stew is a great way to use up leftover beef. It's also a very affordable meal.

This stew was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my stew turned out really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the salt.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more spice.

This hearty stew was a hit with my family! The flavors were rich and complex, and the meat was fall-apart tender. I will definitely be making this again.
