This recipe is certainly worth the time and effort! I found this recipe years ago and am glad to find it again at this site. I used to make it all the time and am looking forward to making some soon. All the ingredients blend together well to make one tasty pot of soup!

This stew took some time to prepare but it was well worth it. I served warm flour tortillas along with guacamole & chips on the side.
