Beef stew with vegetables is a hearty and comforting dish rooted in European cuisine, often associated with regions like Ireland and France. Typically made by simmering tender chunks of beef in a rich broth with an assortment of colorful vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, celery, and onions, the dish is infused with robust flavors from herbs like thyme, rosemary, or bay leaves. High in protein and fiber, beef stew provides essential nutrients such as iron, potassium, and vitamins A and C from the vegetables. Its slow-cooking process helps retain nutrients and creates a satisfying, nutrient-dense meal. However, it can also be high in sodium or saturated fats depending on the choice of ingredients, particularly if premade stocks or fatty cuts of beef are used. Opting for lean beef and incorporating low-sodium broths can make this wholesome classic an even healthier choice for any meal plan.
