Teriyaki Beef Stew sounds strange but it has become my favorite stew recipe. I had never heard of adding pop to a recipe before this stew. I initially thought it would make the recipe too sweet but it is really balanced.
Looking for a new stew recipe that can cook while you are at work? Look no further. I found this recipe in my Taste of Home Healthy Cooking 2016 Annual Recipes Cookbook. I have changed a few things but it is close to the original recipe.
