Meet the Cook: Even before it got cold outside last fall, my husband had asked me to make this stew twice. In fact, here at home, our name for it is Tom's Favorite Stew . We're the parents of two children - a 9-year-old boy and 8-year-old girl. -Linda Schwarz, Bertrand, Nebraska Ingredients:
2 pounds lean ground beef (90% lean) |
1 large onion, chopped |
1 cup water, divided |
1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained |

1 cup salsa |
1 teaspoon salt, optional |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
