Attn PT re: Veg Meatball Stew

[Guest guest]

HI! I have made your veg meatball stew for tea tonight- am hoping it turns

out... as I have a few questions/comments about it for future reference or

for others that might want to make it......

*First- I think this is for a much larger crockpot than I have! lol

It is for about a 5qt wouldn't you say?

(I had to remove about half the veggies once I got them all chopped and

mixed and plopped into my crock- it was full - I couldn't put in any

meatballs!lol)

*Next- I put in about 18 smallish meatballs as per the suggestions I got

when I asked before about the package of MSF meatballs- didn't weigh them-

but it was just enough to cover all the veggies.

*For the liquids- can you please tell us what size can the tomato puree is

meant to be?

I had some passata sauce left over from another dinner so dumped that in

and rinsed the jar out- so I think that made enough liquid for my size

crock- but just thought it would be good to know the right amount. I would

guess about a14.5-20 oz size can?? Not sure what size they come in anymore

in the USA.

*For the slices of celery- should they have been about the size of the

carrot pieces? I did small pieces like I would for soup- but afterwards

wondered if it should have been bigger.

 

Will write again soon with our review of the stew- smells great as it is

cooking now!

 

Thanks for your time!
