Slow Cooker Recipes

Hearty Beef Stew

Ingredients:

1 Pound beef stew meat
2 Tablespoons Flour
2 Tablespoons cooking oil
1 medium onion
1 15- ounce can diced tomatoes
6 carrots
4 potatoes
1 can beef broth

Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste to the flour. Coat the meat with the flour mixture.
Heat the oil over med heat in a skillet. Quickly brown the meat. Place the browned meat along with the pan drippings in the slow cooker. Add all other ingredients. You can add any other vegetables that you like. I usually add a can of yellow corn to mine. Add enough water to cover all ingredients.

Cook on HIGH setting 6 hours or LOW setting for 8-10 hours.

Serves four.

TIP: If time permits in the morning I will start it off on HIGH for about an hour and then turn it to low before I leave for work.

SERVING SUGGESTION: Serve with thick sliced sourdough bread!!
