This stew is so versatile and can be adapted to fit your personal tastes and the ingredients you have on hand. I simmer mine all day on the stove and as with so many soups and stews, it is even better the next day! Enjoy!

How to Make Robynne's Vegetable Beef Stew
- In a dutch oven, brown meat and season with granulated garlic,onion powder, sea salt and pepper over medium heat. Saute onions,minced garlic and mirepoix in olive oil until translucent. Add to dutch oven with meat.
- Add the rest of the ingredients, except wine and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cover and simmer for a minimum of 1 1/2 hours, or until meat is tender.
- Adjust seasonings if needed and add wine. Simmer an additional 15-30 minutes. If you prefer a thicker stew, instant potato flakes may be used to obtain the consistency you desire. Cook an additional 10 minutes if potato flakes are added.
- Discard bay leaves before serving.
