I have picked up the “More with Less” cookbook at our library several times. I will definitely look for the second book.

IN ORDER TO MAKE YOUR BEEF STEW WHERE IT ONLY COST $4.93 DID THAT INCLUDE USING YOUR CUPONS OR DOES THAT MEAN WITHOUT THE CUPONS?

Erin,
Does this have any juice to it once it’s cooked or do you soak all of it in a pot of water and let all the vegetables, etc.. flavour the water? Just curious, I know my mom always boiled potatoes, onions, and carrots in a big pot. Once done, she would drain half the water and then add a can of tomato juice and the cooked meat and let it simmer til we were ready to eat dinner. Served alongside cornbread
Thanks!

I make mine with one large potatoe with the skin on, skip the tomatoe and use a dash of worcheshire sauce, diced up celery and onion, using coupons I can also get broth as my base, but with no coupons would have to start with water. I think most of the flavor from the receipe as listed comes from the tomatoe and garlic.

Can you do this recipe in the crockpot or just on the stove? If you can use the crockpot how long do you need to cook it for?
Thanks,
Shaunda

Either stove or crockpot would work!
