    At times life can become so overwhelming that I feel as though I am just getting lost in my long and growing 'To Do' list. I try not to make fast food a constant lifestyle, but a fast meal has definitely become a way of life for me. And let me tell you my slow cooker has saved me many days because I can throw in some ingredients, add liquid, cover, and crank that baby up and forget it. I especially love to do this in the morning before going to work and coming home in the evening to a meal that is hot and ready for my family.

    So if you ever find yourself short on time...give this recipe a try and let me know how it turns out in the comment section below.

      This looks so delicious! My husband doesn't like beef stew, but I might have to make this sometime anyway and tell him to just deal with it. I'll make him a sandwich too Lol.

        Thank you! I love it...'I'll make him a sandwich'...lol. You could probably substitute the beef for chicken or even pork and it would still work and he may like that better. My husband was not much for beef, but since the crock-pot makes it so tender, he would eat it.
