Chilly Fall days mean that I am pulling out ALL the soup recipes. I found a lonely pack of frozen stew meat yesterday so I thawed it out for stew today. Everyone ate it which is rare. This slow cooker recipe is infinitely flexible. You’ll notice from the pictures that we were out of carrots and I forgot to put in the mushrooms. Ooops. I’ve made this before using all the “right” ingredients and it tastes great both ways.

There are few things better than coming in after a busy day to a house that smells wonderful because dinner is done. Hot and hearty stew with little prep work and it cooks while you are busy with your life. We love our crockpot because it is perfect for our busy family life.
