Tasty Tuesday

Today's post is made with a lot of emotion. A dear woman that I have known my whole life passed away last night. She was a precious lady, and will be greatly missed by many. Kenneth and Sue used to live in the same town as me, but moved a couple of years ago to be closer to their kids. While they still lived here, I once made a large pot of stew and some cornbread to take to them. Oddly enough, that's what I planned for dinner tonight. As I was putting my stew on to simmer, I was remembering times with Kenneth and Sue. When I made that stew for them, they gave me the best compliment I've ever recieved. They said my stew tasted very similar to my great-grandmother's. Grandma was a wonderful cook, so to even have them compare my stew to hers was a major compliment! So that's the recipe I am going to share with you today. It's quite simple, and you can change it to your liking. :)

Stew
2-3 lbs of stew meat, browned and seasoned with Meat Tenderizer, Garlic Powder & Minced Onion
2 cans each:
Green Beans
Peas
Diced Potatoes
Sliced Carrots
Whole Kernel Corn
Tomato Sauce
Tomato Paste

Drain 1 can each of green beans, peas, potatoes, carrots & corn. Mix all together and let simmer all day. The longer it can simmer, the better it is! Will and I aren't big fans of chunks of tomatoes, but if you'd rather have diced tomatoes instead of tomato sauce, you can! Add any other veggies or seasonings you want. Enjoy!

Please remember Sue's family in your prayers...especially Kenneth.
