Confusing name, isn’t it? Is it a stew, or is it a casserole? It’s both. This is not a low-fat recipe. Run while you still can! Or be brave and face an extra 30 to 60 minutes on the stairmaster but, really, trust me when I say this is worth the calories. Okay, now that that’s out-of-the-way, we’ll tackle the next thing.
