The weather is finally starting to cool down here in Florida and that means I get to make soup and stews. You know, the warm comforting foods that just make you feel good from the inside out…I realized that I have a bunch of homemade soup recipes here on the blog, but not one stew recipe! What?! How is that possible??

How to make Beef Stew

I did make an amazing beef stew for my friends over at RealSweetOnions, but I decided an easy beef stew was due here on Food Wine Sunshine. You all know that I am all about an easy dinner, and when you can toss everything into the Dutch Oven and let it cook, it doesn’t get much easier than that!

Oh, and I used canned vegetables in this beef stew recipe, feel free to use fresh vegetables if you want, I was just using what was in the pantry and what allowed me to not head out to the store 🙂

Can you freeze leftover Beef Stew?

Sure can! Place the leftover beef stew in a freezer-safe container or a freezer bag and toss it in the freezer. I recommend putting a date on it so you remember when you put it in there. Leftover Beef Stew will be good in the freezer for about 3 months.
