Home-Style Stew
My husband and I both work full time and we have three daughters, so good, quick meals are important. This stew works wonders. It always tastes great and is a regular menu item for us. —Marie Shanks, Terre Haute, Indiana

Not sure if I did something wrong, but we did not like this at all. My husband eats almost everything and he refused to eat it. I think it was the tomato soup in it that we didn't like. Really wanted to like this because it was so easy to make.
This stew was very tasty. I wasn't sure about the tomato soup at first but thought the flavors were very good. I didn't have frozen vegetables so I used baby carrots and yukon gold potatoes. Will make again.
Excellent! Easy to prep the night before and cook. I don't like mushroom so I substituted celery. Definitely will be making many times this winter! Yum!,
My husband made me promise to cook this again before the end of the month. He said that the gravy was the best he'd ever tasted!
I was skeptical at first about this. The soup combination sounded strange. I used fresh carrots, celery, and potatoes. Then added a can of mushrooms with the water. I had a package of garlic and onion dry dip mix that I'd had for a while that we had purchased at a craft fair so I put that in along with a partial package of onion soup mix. Cooked per instructions and it was the most yummy stew I've ever eaten. My husband loved it and had some buttered bread so he could mop up the gravy. It was a hit and so easy to make. This is my go to stew recipe now.
I am trying this for the first time. First time I have ever made stew. I have it on low but it looks like the veggies are browning before the soup mixture even melts along with the frozen veggies. I added a cup of water. Am I doing something wrong?
Great recipe. I used Bloody Mary mix instead of Tomato soup .
THEE BEST I followed the recipe exactly.... the last half hour I added dumplings. I have served it many times to many friends. They all raved about it. Thank you Taste of home!
I agree with everyone else! This recipe tastes as if you spent a lot longer on it, it's delicious. I did thin it out just a little bit with V8 juice but not necessary, great just how it is. Served it over white jasmine rice-got many compliments! Will for sure make it again! THANK YOU!!!!!
I really enjoyed this stew. The flavor is wonderful. I have never used tomato soup in a stew recipe. It added just enough tomato flavor without being overwhelming. I am making it again tonight and am looking forward to enjoying it all over again. Easy and simple.
