Kielbasa Stew is a rich and creamy stew with delicious flavor.
When I first made this stew, I made it a different way. But since then have changed it up and it is now even thicker and richer in flavor than it was originally.
This stew starts with the basics of diced onion and kielbasa sautéed in a little butter.
I use a beef kielbasa to be biblically clean.
Add in a few russet potatoes for some heartiness.
Frozen mixed veggies make this stew and easy one for any night of the week. It is a great shortcut!
Enjoy this thick, rich stew!

My family enjoyed the flavors and comfort of this meal! I went to get a bowl of leftovers and it was no where to be found in refrigerator! Easy to make.
This is not biblically clean because it makes his dairy and meat. You shall not boil a kid in its mother’s milk outlines the principle of not mixing meat with dairy.
I made this for dinner today and it was fantastic. The flavors were deep and comforting, the perfect meal for a cold wet, wet, wet, day. Thank you!
This was delicious! I made it in to instapot and just added the whipping cream and cornstarch at the end. Definitely recommend perfect dish for a cold evening.
I’m making this now. Smells wonderful. One thing. When I read the recipe I thought, Dutch oven? Don’t think it’ll fit in my Staub. I’m glad I listen to my inner voice and used my soup pot instead. I might have fit everything in the Staub (doubtful) but I’d never have been able to stir without spilling.
