Hamburger Stew

A quick, filling meal. The recipe amounts are at best guestimations. I used 3 packages of the dried gravy, 1 large onion, a couple of good handfuls of the carrots, about 4 small stalks of celery, 1 can of crushed tomatoes. Just guessing on the yeild, but it is at least 6 hearty servings.
