When my children were little, I would whip up a quick meal of hamburger stew made with ground beef on those days that I didn’t have a lot of time to be creative. It was always a big hit and seldom were there any leftovers. Since becoming vegan, I wanted to recreate the dish using one of the many ground beef substitutes available. For this version, I have used Gardein’s Beefless Ground and it is as tasty as the original version. Served over either boiled or baked potatoes, this vegan gluten-free hamburger stew makes a wholesome meal perfect for the cool fall weather.
