“My Dad took the veggies I had brought him from a friend's garden and just invented this one morning. His original recipe used Boca® crumbles. I like to make it with hamburger or ground turkey. This recipe was invented as vegetarian. You can add more Anaheims for a spicier stew.” - by redly

Directions
- Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Crumble ground beef into the skillet; cook and stir until the beef is completely browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard any excess grease.
- Stir zucchini, potatoes, Anaheim chile peppers, onion, bay leaves, beef bouillon granules, salt, and black pepper into the ground beef. Pour enough water over the mixture to cover by 2 to 3 inches. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat; cook at a simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.
- Whisk 1/3 cup water and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the stew while stirring. Continue cooking until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir Worcestershire sauce into the stew; season with salt and black pepper.

"These were okay. It could use some seasonings and garlic to it and I think I would've like it better with mild italian sausages. I didn't want to make this stew spicy (kid) so I seeded the anaheims...." See more"

"Very good! I used 3 medium red potatoes and a small green pepper instead of the chile peppers. This was so easy and a quick meal for dinner. I have a little leftover to take for lunch tomorrow. A ..." See morefriend suggested adding some chopped garden tomatoes, I may try that next time. Thanks for sharing, redly!!"

"This stew was very good. I used Mexican Grey Squash which is very similar to Zucchini. I didn't peel the squash or potatoes because I like the skins. Also I didn't have the beef bouillon so instead..." See more of that and water I used a box of beef stock. And I would really recommend the Worcestershire sauce it makes it better in fact next time I will probably add more."
