This beef stew is wonderful. The Good Seasons dressing mix ( I used the Italian ) made all the difference.

It was a very bland dish. Not one of us cared for it. The leftovers got tossed out.

I liked it, but my husband don't like it at all. He asked me not to make it again, so I wont make it again.

I couldn't beleive the wonderful flavor. If you count the carbs just alternate the potatoes and noodles. This is also great for make ahead company.

Can you say Yum!? I added spices to the flour and 5 minutes before serving, added the bow-tie noodles I made to the entire pot. I also used baby carrots and more potatoes. I have 2 teen boys and a husband, and everyone was stuffed! I served it with garlic toast. This will definitely be a staple recipe in our house!

I was a little nervous about this, but holy cow were we surprised! After reading every one of the comments, I made a couple changes, a little more meat and potatoes than called for, celery, bay leaf, a little fresh garlic, Italian seasoned tomatoes, I also seasoned the flour with season salt and garlic pepper (grinder). It seems like a lot of adjustments, but its not. The cook time was a little longer for the potatoes, but it was worth the wait. I didn't serve with noodles, but made cheddar drop biscuits and salad instead. This is will be a winter add in for our meal plans. Our company couldn't believe the meat wasn't cooked in a slow cooker, very tender. No leftovers were left! :)
