    Beef stew is a hearty, warming meal that you can count on to fill your belly and feed your soul. It just feels good after a long day, and it is super easy to make a Paleo version by simply omitting the "standard" flour and letting the simmering vegetables play their respective parts.

    For example, rutabaga. How often do you get to add that relatively unknown vegetable into your life?

    Beef Stew

    Rutabagas aren't winning any popularity contest, yet they are extremely beneficial for your health, and they happen to taste amazing too - like Brussels sprouts, you just need to know how to cook them the right way.

    They are a great source of manganese (which will reward you with plenty of energy), Vitamin B6, Vitamin C, and potassium, and they also happen to be from the cabbage family, which is known for hosting cancer-fighting compounds.

    Stews are extremely versatile, and you can always use up the vegetables you have on hand. If you have extra squash, then toss that in as well; a splash of red wine adds a special undertone of flavor, and a couple of chopped celery stalks definitely fit in the mix - all vegetables have a place in a pot of stew.

    To boost the nutrition of the meal, you will also want to add a few cups of beef stock to your stew, making sure that you always have some on hand in your Paleo kitchen!
