HEARTY BEEF VEGETABLE STEW
This is a great slow-cooker recipe for beef stew. I've tried many slow-cooker recipes and they always turned out a little "odd", until I tried this one. This tastes wonderful, is healthy for you and the beef is very tender. Perfect recipe for fall and winter. I might try adding some frozen peas in this next time. Comes from Light&Tasty.
