You can use beef or veal, tonight I used veal.
I started by browning a little over 2lbs of veal in a little olive oil.
Seasoned the meat with salt, garlic powder, red pepper.
Cover and let it brown.
While it's cooking, I chopped my vegetables
Use the trinity.
Chopped onion, celery and bellpepper
(I was out of celery and just used a little extra bellpepper)
Once my meat was browned I added my vegetables
You don't have to, but I also added two large tomatoes because I had a lot of homegrown tomatoes that need to be used!
Then I covered and let my vegetables cook until they were softened.
Stir occasionally and pressing tomatoes, so they turn into a sauce.
Once your vegetables have cooked down, I add my Lima beans.
You can use fresh Lima beans, frozen or dried. If dried remember you need to soak them over night.
I had fresh frozen Lima beans.
I also added a bunch of chopped fresh basil.
Seasoned with salt, garlic, red pepper and oregano.
I then added one can of crushed tomatoes.
If you like things extra spicy, you could add a can of rotel at this point.
Then cover and just let it cook down for a good 1 1/2 hrs.
Serve over rice, mashed potatoes or eat it by itself!
The meat will be so tender it falls apart!
Yummy comfort meal!
