This is a filling meal and great for Sundays. (I made it the night I posted it.) This is my version of my moms recipe, can't put that up or I might get shot....Generally I add carrots and potatoes after the meat has been cooking about 15 minutes and it turns into a great one pot meal. Read more I still love eating this when I go home to visit my mom. See less
