GIRL SCOUT STEW, "BOO'S" FAVORITE

Steps:

• 1. We put the hamburger into a Dutch Oven and heated. Each girl can dump their undrained can of veggies into the pot. Warm through and serve.
• 2. You get a lot of different veggies brought into camp, so each time this is made, you get a little different flavor.
• 3. I like to add onion to just about everything, so I add to the hamburger. It is also good with chopped green peppers fried with the hamburger and onions. There is no seasoning added, so feel free to add what you want.
