Pinky’s Warming Beef Stew

This is one of the simplest stews to make and is an absolutely delicious Royal Breakfast. It is one of those stews that doesn’t take much time to prep but requires you to be at home as the pre-stewing and cooking takes time. Totally worth it and the amount below will yield about 4-6 Royal Breakfast portions.  Serve on a bed of sauteed greens or mashed potato with a dollop of sour cream or kefir cream, butter and green vegetables.
