All of my readers are amazing people! I love you all! And I do hope that you continue to read my story. :) I just had a request from one of my readers: LisKatKaram who asked for the recipe that I had all the way back in Chapter one. (That was so long ago :P ) And because I did say that I would put it down, here it is. :)

I got it from:

Its called Chili Beef Stew. And I thought it looked quite tasty. (no I haven't made it. :( I should one of these days.)

Ingredients:

2 pounds stew beef, cut in 1/2-inch pieces

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 cup chopped onion

1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons chili powder

1 can (14.5 ounces) tomatoes

1 can (4 ounces) chopped mild green chile peppers

1 cup heated beef broth

1 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons flour

1/4 cup water

2 cans kidney beans or small red beans (28 to 32 ounces total)

1 can whole kernel corn, drained (approximately 15 ounces)

Preparation:

In a heavy Dutch oven or kettle, brown stew beef in vegetable oil. Remove meat; set aside and drain off all but 2 tablespoons of drippings. In the same kettle in the drippings, sauté onion, green pepper and garlic. Stir in chili powder. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute. Add tomatoes and green chile; stir in hot beef broth. Add salt. Return meat to the pot; lower heat, cover, and simmer for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until meat is tender. In a cup, blend flour with 1/4 cup water; stir into the stew. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Add beans and corn and heat thoroughly.
This beef stew serves 8.
