The Wonderful Stew
Have a large crockpot to handle the amount of stew
2 cans of whole kernel corn
2 cans of Ranch Style Beans
2 cans of either Pinto or Black beans
2 cans of Rotel Tomatoes with chiles
2 cans of mixed veggies OR 1 bag of frozen veggies
1 lbs of ground OR 1 pkg of a type of sausage
A pinch of garlic powder
2 tbsp of chives
(Optional) a stick of salted butter or a bar of cream cheese
Dump all cans and optional ingredients into pot and cook on high to medium for 3hrs. Be sure to check it ever so often so that the meat does not dry out. Stir often
Brown the ground beef before placing it in the pot. Wet the cooking meat with red wine vinegar, to prevent smoking. You can add an onion to the browning process to add extra flavor.
Or alternatively,
Slice up your choice of 1 lbs sausage and add it directly to the stew.
Once the stew is finished, dip out 1-2 cups and enjoy! You can add a nice cheddar cheese to calm down the spiciness.
Add some corn bread for full meal. π
