“For a different taste, I sometimes add a little chili powder to the meat mixture and top this stew with a prepared cornbread mix,“ says Darlene Markel, a field editor from Sublimity, Oregon. “I’ve been making this recipe ever since I married 25 years ago.“

• 1 pound ground beef

Preparation

Step 1

In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the tomatoes, mixed vegetables and tomato sauce.

Transfer to a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish. Cover and bake at 400° for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, for biscuits, in a small bowl, combine flour and baking powder. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk and mustard until mixture forms a soft dough. Add 6 tablespoons cheese.

Drop by tablespoonfuls onto stew. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown; sprinkle with remaining cheese. Yield: 6 servings.
