Vegetable Beef Stew
This is another one of our simple no-fuss meals that is perfect for busy lifestyles and healthy living. Vegetable soup is so warm and comforting, and I find this recipe to be very filling. The crushed tomato and chicken broth base cooks into a thinner soup, but if you'd like to thick it up, wait until the stew is almost done, and then remove ½ cup of the liquid from the pot and whisk in ¼ cup of flour. Stir in and continue cooking an extra few minutes to let it thicken up. Enjoy!
