Spicy Garlicky Pork and Green Chili Stew

Let’s face it. I love stew. I love anything soup stew or chili— comfort in a bowl. Of course, in the winter, it warms your belly and fills your soul! But now spring is upon us and honestly, I feel like it’s good any time of the year! So, bring. It. On.

This time I had a little help in my kitchen— my Mom. Growing up, she always had me in the kitchen with her so it was fun to prep and chop and chat away. Nothing better!

Well, nothing better besides this stew. Give it a try! And grab one of your loved ones for a little extra help and a little extra love. Cheers and love!
