    This was really good! I also added 1 can of stewed tomatoes.

    This is cooking as we speak.  I added 1 can of stewed tomatoes and one table spoon of Better than Boullion Beef – I used salt, pepper, garlic, thyme and a bay leaf since I couldn’t find the Mc Cormack seasonings.  It looks great!  Cooking it on the stove about 3 hours.

    Unfortunately, I don’t have the nutritional info for all of my older recipes that have the old Weight Watchers Points on them. I’m working on rebuilding them so I can get the data needed to calculate the new Points Plus.

    The serving size is 1/8th of the recipe. The actual size of that serving will depend on the size of the ingredients that you chop up. It's best to just divide the entire recipe into 8 equal sized servings.

    What is the serving size? 1 cup?

    Ahhh yes….potatoes are the best part! But unfortunately, potatoes would make this Weight Watchers Recipe not so diet friendly. So alas, the potatoes had to go. But don't worry — this beef stew is so yummy you won't even miss them!

  • Wendianne
