Rutabaga Stew image

My mom has been making the stew for many years and it is by far the BEST stew I have ever tasted. It is hearty, filling, and inexpensive not to mention extremely delicious and fairly easy to make. The hardest part and the most time-consuming part for this stew is preparing the vegetables. I chop and dice all my vegetables by hand and so it can consume a little bit more time, but it is very much worth the extra time it takes. Pork, beef, or venison are all good in this recipe, too.

This stew was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably won't make it again.

I didn't have any rutabagas, so I used turnips instead. It turned out great! The stew was flavorful and hearty. I will definitely be making this again.

This stew was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.

This rutabaga stew was absolutely delicious! The flavors were rich and complex, and the vegetables were cooked to perfection. I especially loved the addition of the apples, which added a touch of sweetness and crunch. I will definitely be making this
