Hey guys! Kellyn here, with another mouth watering Tried and True recipe. Today’s delicious-ness is warm and chunky and super duper simple! This is one of those recipes that we got from the sister of a friend of a friend of a friend years ago (my mom has been making this since we were little). I think that automatically makes it good, since its been passed to friends so many times. 🙂
We have lots of these kinds of recipes that I’m sure we’ll be sharing in our future. We love it for it’s chunks of beef, carrot and potato. Oh yeah – it’s also great because it’ SIMPLE!! You pretty much throw everything in the crock pot and let it cook.
Having recipes like this make me want to grab a blanket and turn on “While you were sleeping,” Right? Just me? (Ok, anything makes me want to watch that movie!) Well, movie or no movie, this stew is truly awesome. And with just a few simple steps, it’ll be in your crock pot and ready for dinner in no time!
If you like simple, heart and delicious soups then this Beef Stew is for you…

Can you be any more specific on the size of package of carrots? Thanks!

I’m not sure of the ounces but it’s the only bag of full-size carrots I see at the grocery store. You peel those and slice them and add them to the stew. You are welcome to add as many or as little carrots. 😉

This stew is so simple and to the point! I always seem to go overboard (just made a stew a couple of days ago that took forever!) At least I know if I am not in the mood to stand at the stove for hours that I can make this in the slow cooker 🙂

I’m making this now but it’s been 6 hours and the meat still isn’t cooked. How much longer should I cook it for in increments? Thanks.
Carole
What is the green seasoning on top that shows in the picture? Looks so yummy! I’m going to make it tomorrow.
Mare
Cannot do mushroom soup…any substitute suggested?
Lil' Luna
Maybe you could try a vegetable soup or use beef broth? Hope those ideas help!
Melaney
Is the mushroom soup “condensed”??
Kristyn Merkley
