If you’ve ever had beef stew, you know it’s a warm, cozy and filling meal. It’s also super easy to make ahead of time in the crock pot and have it waiting for you when you get home. I got this recipe from my mother-in-law, who makes it all the time. When we go over for lunch after church, we will frequently find this yummy dish stewing in the crock pot.
The recipe calls for the standard veggies, but you can add and replace them with what you have on hand. So grab a bowl and enjoy this cozy stew sometime soon with your own family! I know we will be :)
