Turnips lend an earthy flavor and a texture that is similar to potatoes--but with fewer carbs--to this rich and flavorful beef stew.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound beef stew meat (such as chuck), trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 small onion, chopped
8 ounces mushrooms, quartered
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon tomato paste
½ cup dry red wine
4 cups low-sodium beef broth
1 medium white turnip, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
1 medium carrot, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks

Directions

Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add beef, onion, mushrooms, rosemary, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the meat has browned an all sides, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in flour and tomato paste; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add wine and cook for 1 minute more, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add broth, turnip and carrot. Bring to a boil. Partially cover and reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef and vegetables are tender and the broth has thickened slightly, about 30 minutes.

Tips

To make ahead: Refrigerate stew for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 4 months. Thaw, if necessary, and reheat before serving.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
