Stew Meat and Rice

This is a Marmee classic. It is just what it sounds like: stew meat and rice. And potatoes. It is definitely comfort food. These amounts were used to make dinner for two with leftovers. Marmee said she doubles it when cooking for the whole family.

1 lb of stew meat
1 large onion
4 large potatoes
1 cup dry rice
salt and pepper water

1. Rinse the meat and place in a large pot. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
2. Add water to the pot about an inch over the meat.
3. Turn on high heat and bring to a boil. While it is heating, dice up the onion and add to the pot.
4. Add about 1/2 tsp of salt. May want to add more later.
5. Add two beef bouillion cubes.
6. Let cook for 1 1/2 hours at a low boil.
7. While it is cooking, peel and cut up potatoes into about 1 inch cubes. Add after it has boiled for 1 1/2 hours.
8. Turn up the heat and continue to boil about 30 minutes to cook potatoes. You may need to add warm water if it starts to get too thick.
9.Start the rice in a separate pot when you add the potatoes.

Enjoy! It's so simple yet so tasty!
