Beef & Turnip Stew
Beef and turnip stew is a hearty and nourishing dish that’s perfect for cozy dinners. Tender chunks of beef are simmered slowly with flavorful herbs and spices, allowing them to absorb the rich broth. Turnips add a slightly sweet and earthy note, complementing the beef beautifully while also providing a good source of vitamins and fiber. The stew is typically thickened to create a comforting texture, making it a perfect dish to warm you up on a chilly evening. Serve it with crusty bread for a satisfying and wholesome meal that highlights the flavors of the season!
