This hearty stew recipe is just what you need on a cool fall evening. Made with pork, carrots, onions, and mushrooms, it is ready to serve when the vegetables are tender. Bake a fresh loaf of wheat bread or some rolls to accompany this pork stew. Mix up a batch of your favorite cookie recipe to serve for dessert.

    This recipe looks great, I haven't had a chance to try it yet but as a stew lover, it won't be long.

    Is there some problem with food supply in America?

    I ask seriously as so many of your recipes rely on processed fruit and vegetables instead of fresh.

    Why would anyone use frozen onions and carrots in preference to fresh?

    Fresh mushrooms are much better than canned.

    Canned foods invariably are high in salt.

    I am no health food nut - but fresh is cheaper as well.
