Beef Stew Crock-Pot Recipe

This is a wonderful, easy beef stew recipe that is hearty yet healthy!

To start you can use either leftover roast beef, or you can use stew meat! (stew meat is generally cheap and if you find it on sale get it and freeze it!!! It thaws quickly and can be used in a ton of recipes!)You can use more or less meat but I shot for around 1.5-2 pounds of meat in this stew.

Then chop up vegetables!

I used

2 Potatoes (white or sweet!)

1 Onion (I used yellow but any kind would work! Even throwing in the little ones whole!)

3 Carrots

2 Parsnips (or rutabaga, turnip, beats, or other similar veggie)

Green Beans (cut into one inch pieces)

(You can add others celery, corn, Brussels sprouts etc…)

Put this in with the meat and mix together

3 cups Vegetable Broth (or Beef Broth)

1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar

2 Bay leaves

1 Teaspoon Thyme

Salt and Pepper to taste

Pour over meat and Vegetables.

Cook on Low 6-8 hours

Or Cook on High 3-4 hours

Serve and enjoy!
