A great hearty stew to keep you warm in the cold midwest winters. You can add tomato chunks if you want thicker soup.

Mina loves beef stew in the winter because it makes her think of her native chorba. I love Mina all the time because she is the love of my life.This is the simplest version of an instant pot beef stew I could come up with. Honestly the hominy is the only “interesting” part. But this dish isn’t trying to be interesting. It is trying to be warm, filling, and easy to cook.¡Buen Provecho!SK

I used my left over vegetables . One egg plant was gone half bad, used my frozen tomatoes , and add a can of black beans. You can use any can of legumes ( chickpeas , white beans, but lentils would not be a good idea, )if you don’t want to use oven you can use same pot to cook if you are too lazy or have no time. . I think putting then to oven make taste better.

This Beef Stew Recipe is perfect for the colder weather! Tender beef is simmered in a crock pot until melts in your mouth tender. It’s comfort food heaven!

Here in Florida it's been cold and then hot. Like a rollercoaster. I made this for a cold day.
