Easy Mexican Beef Stew

Easy Mexican Beef Stew

Beef stew is a classic comfort dish that is hearty, filling, and a favorite of my family. I took those same components and turned the idea into a delicious spin creating a Mexican inspired beef stew that is out of this world. While the base of the ingredients are the same of tender chunks of beef, carrots, and potatoes, the spices and toppings are what set this recipe apart from the classic. Cumin, oregano, garlic, and onion create a flavorful broth for the meat and vegetables to simmer in while getting tender and delicious. This easy Mexican beef stew is sure to become a new dinner favorite.

Simple French Onion Soup

Soups are always a favorite for dinners at my house. There is something so comforting about a bowl of soup that just can’t be duplicated with any other meal. French onion soup is one of those soups that for whatever reason I tend to get when I am at a restaurant, but don’t make at home as often. I recently made it and realized just how easy it actually is to make French onion soup and decided I definitely need to share the recipe with you and that we all should be making it more often right in our own kitchens. My recipe for French onion soup is one that just has a few ingredients, but is packed full of flavor and is super satisfying too! My simple French onion soup will quickly become one of your favorites to add into your soup rotation any day of the week!
