Most recipes using beef stew meat star root vegetables like carrots and potatoes and are designed to be savored during the coldest months of the year. But with fresh zucchini and basil, this variation is fresh enough for spring and summer. Pair with whole grain pasta or quinoa to showcase a lighter, brighter side of beef stew.
