BEEF, GREEN CHILI AND TOMATO STEW
I printed this off of allrecipes.com over 2 years ago,and made it several times, until my husband said he didn't like it THAT much. I wanted it again, so I added the potatoes - then it was great! So the spuds are optional

Tips:
- Choose the right tomatoes: Use firm, green tomatoes that are not too ripe. Overripe tomatoes will be soft and mushy, and they will not hold their shape in the stew.
- Slice the tomatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly in the stew. If the tomatoes are not sliced evenly, some pieces may be overcooked while others are still undercooked.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and texture to the stew. Some good choices for vegetables to add to green tomato stew include onions, celery, bell peppers, carrots, and potatoes.
- Season the stew well: Use a variety of spices and herbs to season the stew. Some good choices for spices and herbs to add to green tomato stew include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and thyme.
- Simmer the stew for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and the tomatoes to soften. If you simmer the stew for longer, the tomatoes will become even more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the stew hot: Green tomato stew is best served hot, with a side of cornbread or mashed potatoes.
