The Halloween Operating Room stew makes its own tasty sauce without using thickening agents...!
This Tasty Operating Room Stew recipe serves 4 to 6 famished ghosts and Halloween goblins.
HALLOWEEN RECIPE COOKING HINT:
If you will be busy with my ghosts and goblins all day, you can skip the meat browning step, throw it all in my Witches Caldron, excuse me, crockpot for you humans, and let it cook (stew) all day. I will be over at midnight...! Adjust the veggies to your own liking. See you at midnight...!
If I don't appear, please have a very happy and safe Halloween.
