We love this recipe. I add greens beens and some extra seasoning and serve over polenta instead of the noodles. Works great every time!

I added green beans, celery and kernel corn. It was the best beef stew I've ever made. Thanks again Kraft!!

DELICIOUS!!! My family absolutely loved it. I did omit the carrots, and added a can of drained corn and green beans. YUMMY!!!! This has become a family favorite.

This was awesome. I also added celery. My husband couldn't believe I cooked this.

I made this last weekend. It was incredibly easy to make, and my boyfriend absolutely loved it!!!!! I used baby carrots instead of peeling and chopping carrots. Also, I used very lean stew meat that was already cut into pieces. It says to simmer for 30 mins. after you add the veggies, but I simmered it for almost an hour and a half. We didn't have noodles with it. Instead, I served it with garlic toast. Very easy and delicious!!!!!

I loved it. I didn't need the noodles--just ate the stew portion. Like others, I substituted italian dressing instead of using the packet. Turned out great. My husband hates tomatoes, so he wants me to try again by substituting extra beef broth for the tomatoes. We'll see!
