Beef stew is a wonderful comfort food. I love, love my mom's recipe. I saw this recipe while I was on Betty Crocker website. So I thought I would give it a try. Glad I did, my family loved this. There's a lot of great recipes on that site.

My mom's recipe took a few hours to cook. This version takes 30 minutes to cook. Great weeknight meal the family will love. It's easy and tasty. So good. My mom's recipe is still the best, that's my thoughts. I think, a great stew must always have beef, potatoes and carrots. This recipe has those ingredients plus mushrooms. The spicy mustard adds a lot of flavor to the gravy in this stew. The leftover taste even better the next day.
