Very good and very easy. Ingredients probably on hand. I heeded earlier reviews and added 1/2 tsp pepper and whatever veggies I had around. One can of rotel and because I am in Texas I added 3 thick slices of fresh jalapeno. It was wonderful! Just a little spicy=enough to notice but not enough to burn.

Yummy! It sounded kind of odd at first with using spagetti sauce but this recipe rocks! After reading reviews before I made it I decided to only put a half tspn of pepper. Just the perfect heat. The base of this recipe seems very versitile I would like to try adding different ingredients like pasta shells or potatoes as well as cutting up my own fresh veggies instead of using frozen. KEEPER!

Very good!! Everyone loved it including my son who doesn't like many vegetables and doesn't usually like anything with pepper in it.

Fantastic soup! I followed the recipe almost exactly. I used 1 cup beef broth instead of the bouillon granules and for the vegetables I used a bag of frozen corn and a bag of frozen peas. There was a little 'kick' but definitely not spicy. I'm wondering if others used the Rotel brand for the tom and green and chilies? I used another brand - 14 oz zesty, mild tom and green chilies. Even using the 1 teaspoon of pepper I would not call it spicy. My one year old loved it! Will be on my monthly recipe rotation for sure!

Picked this recipe only because I had most ingredients on hand. Definate keeper. The only change I made was used frozen corn instead of the frozen vegetable only because it was what I had on hand.

It doesn't come any easier or heartier than this! I cooked a cup of elbow macaroni and added that to the pot during the last 30 minutes...scrumptious!!! Oh and do go easy on the pepper...i only used about 1/4 tsp for a very flavorful stew. Enjoy some french bread with this recipe...

Very good. Wasn't sure I would like "spicy" with "vegetable stew" but this is now a family favorite.

Made this soup as written, except used stew meat in place of the ground beef. Forgot to put the celery in, so just used a few shakes of celery salt, and added a few shakes of cayene pepper for a little extra kick. Will definately add to our soup rotation.

I wasn't expecting that much from this because of the minimal ingredients involved, but what a GREAT SURPRISE!!! I threw this together inthe morning and it was wonderful! There was so much flavor to this ! I think I can modify this with different vegetable ( just used frozen mixed vegetables), but I think I can different textures/tastes with different vegetable combinations. Try this with a dollop of sour cream on top! YUMMY!!!! This was GREAT!

I liked this stew a lot and it is a keeper, BUT... People. GO EASY ON PEPPER!!! After some review here ( the person said it was not spicy enough) I decided it will be good enough for me and I followed the recipe and put 1 teaspoon of pepper. Oh, how I regretted it. I do love "spicy" but not THAT spicy. My husband cood barely finish his portion, and my toddler constanly opened his mouth and soon refused to eat it. I tried to save situation by putting some honey, but it did not help much. But to give a good healthy dish 4 stars just because of it would be unfair, because the name of it "Spicy stew". Next time I will put only 1/4 of teaspoon of pepper.

This was pretty good and so easy! I did change a couple things. I cook the meat alone, drain, then add the onion because I like the juice from the onion, it adds more flavor. Also, I didn't have enough time to let this simmer for 8 hours so instead I used a 15 or 16 oz can of sliced carrots and skipped out on the celery, so nothing had to become tender. I left it on low til my husband came home, 4 hours later, and dinner was warm and ready to go. The only problem with this was something I can remedy later and thats why it still got 5 stars. Too spicy! I will definitely make this again, but with 1/4 tsp pepper next time. That should probably do the trick. Thanks for the upload! Another easy stew recipe to go in my permanent collection. Update: Since it was so spicy, adding a bit of water to the leftovers and reheating made it more manageable to eat! Try this if it comes out too hot for your taste.

We threw this together last night and it was easy and AWESOME! My husband loved it and I did, too. I can take or leave vegetable soup usually, but I had 2 bowls full! We used Ragu Parmesan & Romano spaghetti sauce, only 3 cups of water, 1 can of mixed vegetables, no celery, and added some raddiatore pasta. This one definitely goes in the recipe box! Thank you!

Neither spicy nor a stew, but still delicious. It was more like a hearty beef soup. I like a lot of heat, so I used Fra Diavolo (or Arrabiatta) tomato sauce, but still not spicy enough. I also used 3 1/2 cups of organic beef stock instead of bouillon and water. Overall, a great comfort dish.

This is the first time I tried an unrated recipe on AR and I'm glad I did! We really enjoyed this soup. I did not have celery so I left that out but I will add it the next time I make this. For my frozen mixed veggies, I used a bag of zucchini, green beans and carrots. Obviously with the addition of spaghetti sauce, this is a very "tomato-y" soup. My husband thought there was a little too much tomato taste but he still ate up his bowl and went for seconds. My two young boys both gave this 5 stars, even the picky little one...which doesn't happen often. I did add 1/4 cup of barley during the last hour of cooking. Oh, and my boys enjoyed dipping mini saltine crackers in their soup :) I will definitely make this soup again, thanks for posting!
