The things we do for love

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!"
