Yes, I'm back with another recipe that is circa 1971, Church of St. Leo's parish cookbook....
This actually is my own mom's recipe. I remember her making it when I was a kid. It's delicious!
It's Simple and the biggest bonus, my kids LOVED it!
Louie asked if we could have this again on Thursday; that is his stamp of approval. He doesn't remember all 7 days of the week, for some reason if he really likes something we need to have it for dinner on Thursday or "can we go there on Thursday?"
Stay-A-Bed Stew
2 lbs. stew meat
lots of carrots, peeled and cut into big chunks
several onions, cut into big chunks
several celery stalks, chopped
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can of peas (don't drain them!)
1 bay leaf
Combine the first 5 ingredients in a CrockPot or a dutch oven. Gently stir in the can of peas and the liquid and the bay leaf.
Cook on low for 6-8 hours (if using a crockpot). If you're going the oven route, bake at 275 for 6 hours.
Simple, delicious and easy on the wallet! Enjoy!
