I was short on time and needed a quick and easy dinner. This was delicious. I did add a package of onion soup mix, basil and garlic for some added flavor. Will make again!

Made this last night for my husband who was feeling a little sick. He loved it and so did my 4 year old son. I used beef stew meat instead of sirlion so i simmered it for 2 hours to make sure the meat was tender. I also added a bay leaf. The stew had a nice, mellow comforting flavor. We will definitely make this again this winter. Thanks!

This recipe is delicious! I added a 32oz box of organic beef broth in place of the three cans of broth. And a splash of red wine. My husband loves it. Made with a rustic Irish Soda bread on the side. Great Quarantine comfort food dish!

Made this for the first time and it was great. While cooking it I did cut down to half on the pepper since my family doesn't prefer the heat as much. It turned out absolutely perfect and the whole family enjoyed it~

I added a couple spices to the flour; cumin, paprika, chili powder, and some cajun seasoning. Also added some Onion soup mix and garlic after reading the comments here then at the end I put a couple biscuits on top and sided with can cresent rolls... Sooo good, love it
