BEEF STEW + SALTY CORNBREAD RECIPES
As winter slowly comes to an end, I decided that we needed one last bowl of winter comfort before we pack away the recipes for the next season. If you knew me, you would find that I am a bit of a soup fanatic. Creamy, brothy, hearty, you name it and I’ve probably made/ate it!
This time I went for an old favorite that my Mom used to make when I was growing up. It’s a pretty simple recipe that doesn’t take too much attending to and it is a crowd pleaser for the meat and potatoes kind of folks.
