We love this stew and have been making it for years, served over brown rice. Chopped green onion and cilantro on top are a must for color and additional flavor. This is a favorite when camping as well, with its few ingredients and ease of preparation. Instead of chopping carrots, I use frozen peas and carrots which have a uniformity of size and cook quickly. I also start the recipe with one chopped sweet onion because almost everything we eat has an onion! Kinder's mild barbeque sauce works great.
