Ranch Stew
/
A stew similar to chili and just as tasty.
I get all excited on Wednesdays when my husband comes home with the mail. Every week we get a local shopper/newspaper and it is loaded with recipes and tips for ladies. After weeks of collecting recipes I finally tried one yesterday. One thing I have had to learn about the cooking here is the people do NOT season their food. Recipes also call for things like Accent; which is a mostly MSG seasoning and I stay away from that ingredient. This recipe called for it and in it's place I used a little cajun seasoning.
Ranch Stew is a stick with you recipe. I ate two bowls and was stuffed. I will definitely be making this again and doubling the recipe for leftovers. ~SO GOOD!

The original recipe did not say whether to drain the corn or not, but I DID. I also added a little more chili powder to the pot.
