I created tonight's dinner from a leftover, that was left over. First there was Au Jus & Bacon Wrapped Sirloin Tip Roast, & from that I made Stove Top Sirloin Tip Beef Stew, & since we didn't eat all of that, tonight I made this great tasting Southwest Cheddar Beef Stew in the oven. My husband could not believe it was cold left over Beef Stew. I made a corn Bread topping & added some whole kernel corn, a couple of Chopped Jalapeno Peppers, & some Cumin & Cheddar Cheese, & we loved it. I even had a second helping. It was very tasty & cheesy. You COULD also use canned beef stew if desired.
