Yam and Turnip Stew with Mini-Biscuits
A hearty fall stew with little sunflower seed and Parmesan biscuits to put on top instead of dumplings. I use the lid from a spice jar to cut them out. I usually make a double recipe of the mini-biscuits as people seem to love them so much. They really make the stew. Any vegetables will do, in approximately the same quantities.
