Personal Notes:
My Grandma Maffitt made this stew often. It is sooo delicious! I remember being shocked at the simple ingredients (as well as the amount of canned goods and prepared spaghetti sauce in the recipe) because the flavor is amazing. This was one of my favorite dishes growing up and it has so many wonderful memories of Sundays at my grandparents house at 710 N. Hamilton Street, Gary, IN.
