I found this recipe in our local paper a number of years ago. It's so satisfying on a cold winter or fall day.—Mary Rea, Orangeville, Ontario
Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) reduced-sodium beef broth
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cubed
1 cup cubed carrots
1 cup cubed peeled rutabaga
1 cup cubed peeled parsnips
1 cup cubed peeled potatoes
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
Directions:
1. In a Dutch oven or large kettle, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the broth, vegetables, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 30-40 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
2. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into the stew. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Yield: 6 servings.
