Old-Fashioned Beef Stew image

This rich, hearty beef stew has a garden full of flavor with vegetables like cabbage, rutabaga and carrots. Mom knew this main dish is one that would suit us 11 kids. When we were all home, she'd throw in extra vegetables to stretch it. -Anne Heinonen, Howell, Michigan

I followed the recipe exactly and the stew turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add a bit more oregano. It was a little bland for my taste.

This beef stew is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. I like to add a bit of red wine and Worcestershire sauce to mine for extra flavor.
