Okay we finally did it. This morning I put this exact mixture in my crockpot, only difference I added was I put a little thyme too. We just finished it with some French garlic bread. Yummy! Maries cakes are always delicate, I think because Marie is too, and sweet! ttyl Deb

[@Jannie227]

Thanks for posting. Our family has something very similar but we call it goulash. Instead of tomato paste we use a packet of Lipton's Onion Soup Mix. No need to add onions. Turns out great every time! Thanks again and hope the cakes and shower was a success! Really wanted to see a pic of decorated cakes. but I know how it is as I forget to take pics to post a lot of the time.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much. We posted a picture of the cakes on the community post. We will put more pictures on our Sunday Chat video this week.

[@thisbabyboomer]

I have not tried ground beef in a stew but it sounds good. My grandchildren do not like stew meat so I will try this out. Thank you for all the recipes Marie. 🙂

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Tanya. The hamburger meat with the tomato paste gives the stew a taste similar to spaghetti sauce. Your grandchildren will probably like it. Calvin and I both enjoyed the taste and flavor.

Hi Marie and Calvin! I have that crockpot! My daughter bought it for me and I love it. Thanks for posting this recipe 💫😊

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much, yes I love mine also but it seems like it always takes longer to cook than my other one.

[@desireecoad7557]

@@SouthernCountryLiving I agree, it does take longer. Have you tried the Mississippi Pot Roast recipe? It looks a bit strange. My daughter’s making it tomorrow night.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Yes, Marie did a video for the Mississippi Pot roast a few months ago. It is very delicious.

[@pamfromplainfield4596]

Marie, the cake looks yummy and love the color pink..... and I have to tell you, your hands looks super youthful! :) I wear a lot of rings and always want my hands to look pretty and noticed how nice yours looked on your video. Enjoy the shower!

[@lordylou1]

Thank you for sharing this, Marie. I also make this - mostly in the winter because it's so hearty. Sometimes I squash the meat together into little nuggets/tiny hamburgers and cook the same way for a change. I also add some Worcester sauce for some tang.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much, that sounds good.

Did you put celery in the stew ? It looked like it when you were stirring it. I love celery too.

Thanks very much, yes I put a little celery in the stew. You could add more if you wanted. We like celery in our soups and stew also.

EVERYTHING I'VE MADE SO FAR HAS BEEN DELICIOUS. THIS STEW IS ON THE AGENDA FOR TOMORROW MORNING!!

Thanks very much. I think that you will enjoy the stew, we sure did.
Marie and Calvin

[@DesertAttorney]

Could I make this in a regular dutch oven or pot on the stove?? What do you think?

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks for watching. Yes you could make this on the stove. This recipe doesn't have much liquid in it so you would need to add some more water to prevent it from cooking dry. Just bring it up to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer and cover with a lid. It will probably be done in 30 minutes. Just check the potatoes to see if they are soft before you turn it off.
Marie and Calvin

[@DesertAttorney]

@@SouthernCountryLiving excellent! Will do! Thank you so very much for the response! I will make this over the coming weekend. ----Danielle
