SOUTHWEST STEW
Our whole family loves foods spiced with picante sauce, so I developed this recipe! This dish is very quick and easy to make, and it also reheats well. Sometimes I add cooked, sliced potatoes to the stew for a little variety, too.

Meet the Cook: Even before it got cold outside last fall, my husband had asked me to make this stew twice. In fact, here at home, our name for it is "Tom's Favorite Stew". We're the parents of two children - a 9-year-old boy and 8-year-old girl. -Linda Schwarz, Bertrand, Nebraska

Add next 8 ingredients, cover and simmer for about 45 minutes, stirring only occasionally, til meat is tender. Add carrots and potatoes, recover and simmer another 25-30 minutes or til tender. Add corn, heat through. Remove bay leaf, or, leave it in there and whoever happens to get it has to do the dishes! ;). *Can add or sub peas and/or green beans if desired. You can also add 1 rib of celery, sliced, at the same time you add the potatoes and carrots if desired. **If you like it on the thick side like we do, just mix 1-2 tablespoons cornstarch with equal amount of cold water (I use 2 TbL. each), stir into pot while simmering to thicken even more. Simmer, stirring, for several minutes. Do this at the very end. Stir gently so you don't wreck the green beans if added. Some like it thin, though. So just make to your own preference.

Tips:
- Prep Ingredients: Dice the vegetables and cut the meat into bite-sized pieces before starting cooking. This will save time and ensure even cooking.
- Brown the Meat: Browning the meat in a separate pan before adding it to the stew will enhance its flavor and create a more complex broth.
- Use a Variety of Vegetables: Incorporating a variety of vegetables, such as bell peppers, corn, and tomatoes, adds color, texture, and nutritional value to the stew.
- Simmer for Flavor: Allow the stew to simmer for at least 30 minutes, or longer if time permits. This allows the flavors to meld and develop, resulting in a rich and flavorful dish.
- Season to Taste: Adjust the seasoning according to your preference. Southwestern flavors often include chili powder, cumin, and paprika, but feel free to add or adjust seasonings to suit your taste.
