Very yummy! Our family loved it! I used leftover taco meat already seasoned and topped the stuffed shells with chopped up tomatoes before adding the cheese and chips. I served it on a bed of iceberg lettuce. We would definitely make this again! Next time I'd like to try adding chopped up avocado or guacamole at the end.

5 Stars based on a few modifications: Our family loved this stew!!! I made apple-favored pot roast (a recipe from this site) and used the leftover meat and gravy as a substitute for the meat and broth in this recipe. To the gravy and 2 cups of water, I followed the recommendations to add 1/2 cup of red wine, 2 tbsp of Worcestershire sauce and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. I added some dried rosemary to the dumpling recipe. In addition, I substituted frozen corn for the green peppers and mushrooms to make it more 1 year old friendly. She loved it! Absolutely delicious and a great way to use leftovers!

Excellent recipe!!! This is one of our family's favorites and I love how it makes the whole house smell great all day. I follow the recipe with a few exceptions: I add carrots and celery to the pot roast. Then I make red-skinned mashed potatoes on the side and use the left over liquid from the pot roast to make gravy. Thanks Christine for a wonderful recipe! The leftover meat and gravy (if you have any) is a great substitute for the meat and broth in the Beef Stew and Dumplings recipe from this site. Makes another delicious meal without as much work as starting from scratch.
