Chunky Bean Stew
I am back and have a DELICIOUS recipe to share with all of you. Last night, was one of those nights when I had nothing planned for dinner. A blizzard was on the horizon and I literally opened the cupboards and asked for a divine intervention for dinner! The gang loved it, so I thought I would share. It is kind of a mix between a Chili and a Stew.
