My dear friend Liz passed this recipe on to me years ago... it is flexible as far as veggies you want to add. Pretty basic stuff. But the V-8 adds a nice kick and this remains a favorite recipe.

V-8 BEEF STEW



V-8 Beef Stew image

Don't let the fact that it's made with V-8 fool you. The sauce thickens and becomes almost unrecognizable as having V-8 in it. I cobbled this recipe together between BH&G, mom, and Joy. It makes a lot, but that's ok, because the leftovers get more delicious with time, as the flavors blend with each other.
