10 of the BEST Hearty Stew Recipes
Can we please sit down with a giant bowl of hearty stew and just relax for a bit while we warm ourselves by a nice big fireplace? That is pretty much my perfect fall or winter dinner. Actually as most of y’all know, that’s my perfect dinner or lunch almost anytime of the year. Well….except for the fireplace…I don’t want the fireplace in the summer hahaha.
But stews and soups are on my weekly menu almost every week no matter what the season.
However, nice hearty stews seem to be a tad bit more popular during the winter and with our freezing weather right now, I’m totally ok with that!
