Beef Stew with Cabbage and Baby Lima Beans
Cabbage is a green leafy and very dense vegetable, rich in beta-carotene, vitamin C and fiber which can provide you some cholesterol lowering benefits if steamed. It originated from Europe and became part of their cuisine as early 16th century. I am bringing this recipe a little different, I am using beef stew instead of pork meat.
