    Reading the vegetable to liquid ration this sounded like it was going to be really thin so I ended up keeping the same amount of veg and halving the liquids. This gave me the stew like consistency I was looking for but ultimately the taste was too sweet and rather bland for my liking. I increased the seasoning and added shredded cheddar and swiss cheese to try to bump up the flavor. This helped but I still ended up tossing most of it and won't bother making it again. Very disappoint.
