I had a roast in my fridge that was thawed and waiting for the perfect recipe. A quick search for roast beef narrowed down to my dietary preferences, and I saw this. A quick scan of the ingredients, and as per usual with Penny’s recipes. I had everything on hand, which was perfect as I didn’t have to venture out in the cold. My only changes were omitting the mushrooms, and subbing parsnips for the carrots, which I found added a subtle but noticeable sweetness which I enjoyed and upping the pepper by a lot…it worked beautifully here with a nice tingle on the palate. Not being a fan of beef stew for reasons of being ho-hum and always missing something, it wasn’t the case here…the broth is fantastic, and the smells lingered beautifully in my home, and through my patio door to the outdoors. I gave a bowl to my neighbor, and she loved it…we both sat there raving about it. it’s 5 a.m. and I’m enjoying a bowl of it right now. Every time I visit this site in search of recipes utilizing what I have on hand, the second I see Penny’s recipes in the search, I go straight for it, this one being no exception. It’s absolutely going to be on repeat. Normally I freeze soup, but there won’t be any left to freeze with this one. It’s straight up comfort food perfect for cold days.
