We had this camper stew with my best friend's mom, Mrs. Doyle, in my childhood. I have made it many times over the years. It's always great. I just added a few things to make it heartier. We laid Mrs. Doyle to rest today, Oct 25, 2016. I would like to dedicate my Blue Ribbon to her, Mrs. Norma Jean Doyle 1930-2016. Thank you Kitchen Crew. This means a lot to me.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This is a delicious and economical meal your family is going to love! We prepared this in a Crock Pot and the kitchen smelled amazing while it was simmering. This soup has a consistency more like a stew and is very hearty. The seasonings are spot on, nothing is too overpowering. Add some crusty bread and you have a comforting winter meal.
