This Crock Pot stew hits the spot on a chilly day. Serve with a warm roll or crusty bread and you’ll be a happy camper.
I lucked out with kids who will eat most things put in front of them. I’ve never really had a struggle with getting them to eat their veggies, but I still like to sneak veggies in where I can to make meals more nutritious, so I decided to throw in some Kale. I like that it also adds a little more color to the stew.
