This stew is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some leftover carrots, celery, and onions, and I just threw them in the stew. It turned out great!

This stew was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and herbs, and it was much better. I also think it would be better with some crusty bread to soak up the broth.
