So glad you liked enjoyed it! Is the prefect comfort food!
This looks pretty amazing! I will have to make soon. Thanks for sharing how to freeze and reserve. I am trying to find meals that I can make and just pop in the freezer for later. 🙂

Do you think turnips would be a good addition? To give it something with a potato like texture. Also, do you find this comes out soupy or is thick like a normal stew?
I think turnips would be a great addition. When I made this it did turn out thick like a regular stew.
Any thoughts on a substitution for tomato paste, for those intolerant?
You can certainly just omit the tomato paste.
I didn’t have any thyme (seriously? what the heck!), and I used pea pods instead of peas… Looks amazing!!
Has anyone ever used sweet potatoes in this stew? If so, how did it turn out??
We haven’t tried this, but it sounds like it would be delicious!
