Nope, there isn't a spelling mistake in the name of this!
Peggy's Beef, Barley and Veggie Stoup is exactly that! It's a cross between a soup and a stew.
Hubby likes it almost chunky and stew like, so he gets a bowl full with less liquid, whilst the rest of the family, well, they get to choose for soup or stew, Peggy justs adds more or less of the broth to their bowls and hey presto! everyone is happy!
