Beef Stew

First of all, this dumb thing keeps double spacing and wont let me single space! Whats the deal?! BAH! And I just posted pictures of my Easter decor and mantle on my family/mama blog if you're interested!

Chunky Beef Stew

1 cup water

3 TB quick cooking tapioca (stick with me here!)

2 ts. Sugar

1 ½ ts. Salt

½ ts. Pepper

4 medium carrots (cut into chunks)

3 medium potatoes; chunks

2 celery ribs; chunks (optional)

1 slice bread; cubed

½ can chicken broth

In a large bowl; combine tomates, water, tapioca, sugar, salt and pepper. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Pour into a greased baking pan. Cover and bake at 375 for 1 ½-2 hours (2 hours for more tender meat and veggies). Serve in bowls.

I posted this recipe a long time ago, but I"m reposting since I've made some new foodie friends :)

Do NOT make this if you dont like apple pie! Because its pretty much apple pie made into an entre! Everybody in my family loved it. My kids don't like the apple chunks, so I blend the apple pie mixture.
