Lunch: Beef Stew with Cheddar Dumplings Recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 to 3 pounds beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons canola oil
5 cups water
5 teaspoons beef bouillon granules
1 tablespoon browning sauce, optional
1/2 teaspoon onion salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
4 medium carrots, sliced
1 medium onion, cut into wedges
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) cut green beans, drained

Instructions

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Add beef, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat. In a Dutch oven, brown beef in oil in batches.
Stir in the water, bouillon, browning sauce if desired, onion salt and garlic salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour.
Add carrots and onion. Cover and simmer 10-15 minutes longer or until vegetables are tender. Stir in green beans.
For dumplings, combine biscuit mix and cheese. Stir in enough milk to form a soft dough. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto simmering stew. Cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes (do not lift cover) or until a toothpick inserted in a dumpling comes out clean. Serve immediately.
