Being approved to read Murder at the High School Reunion (Maya and Sandra Mystery, #5) by Lee Hollis made my day, and I wasn't disappointed in the least.

Product Review: Swanson Beef Broth

I received a Vox Box from Influenster.com that had Swanson Beef Broth in it for free in exchange for my honest review. I've never used Swanson's Beef Broth before. However, I have used their Chicken Broth before and had good results with it, so I was excited to try it out a different product by Swanson.

Typically, I eat more chicken than I do beef, so I didn't know what I wanted to make. I perused Pinterest for beef recipes that called for beef broth. I narrowed it down to beef stew and shepard's pie. Eventually, I settled on making Shepard's Pie with ground beef instead of lamb. The recipe was very simple and easy to follow.

Once I made the filling, I divided it in two small casserole dishes. The recipe made so much food, that I couldn't eat it all and ended up giving the second dish to my parent's neighbors. The neighbors enjoyed it and made two meals out of it. Things I would've changed in the recipe is I would have used more of the Swanson Beef Broth and less of the rosemary. However, the beef broth made a little gravy in the Shepard's Pie, which was a very welcome addition in my opinion.

Five out five stars is what I gave Swanson Beef Broth as it is a quality product, and it will be my go to broth to use the next time I need some for a recipe. It has a great flavor without being too overpowering. The container is easy to open and pour into a measuring cup. Next time, I will try the Swanson Beef Broth in a beef stew.
