Yesterday, Mr. Wonderful did not have to be at work at a specific time so I suggested he make a stew! You know, one of those "throw all this stuff in the crockpot" kind of things. Well, he did (after modifying a recipe) and I was greeted at 5:50 with a wonderful, wonderful stew! I call it Impromptu Stew and it is full of hearty goodness that is too good to keep a secret. So here it is (I don't know the measurements for everything so I'm just going to put down ingredients with some guesstimates):
Mr. Wonderful's Impromptu Stew
2 tablespoons of oil
1 teaspoon of oregano
1 lb of bison stew meat (or use whatever meat you wish)
zucchini
squash
small red potatoes
onion
1 can of corn
flour for thickening
at least 1 cup of water
1 tablespoon of beef granules
I think that was it. It is soooo yummy! I dunked whole wheat sourdough bread and then whole wheat bread from Texas French Bread until it was so soaked, I had to use my spoon to get it out! You can put in whatever veggies you like, your own meat, just whatever you want!! I especially liked it because everything we used (with the exception of the canned corn) was local and it will be a good solution to "hurry!! we gotta eat this NOW!"
I'm surprised I had never thought of this before but then again, I'm a little gunshy in the kitchen.
Bison Bill sez: "Try bison meat!! You'll love it!"
