Slow Cooker Beef & Butternut Stew

by

Have I told you lately how much I love my slow-cooker? I found this recipe in my 21 Day Fix Extreme eating plan, and I LOVED it, except that the beef wasn’t as tender as I like it to be in my stews!  SO, I adapted the recipe for the slow cooker and I was so excited with the results!

This recipe is a keeper!

If you’re following a Portion Fix eating plan, the container equivalents for this recipe is 1 Green, 1 Red per serving (makes about 6 – 1 cup servings.)

Do you love your slow-cooker, too? I’d love to hear what kinds of foods you enjoy making in your slow cooker!  Did you try this recipe? Let me know what you thought!

Slow Cookin’ Steak Chili

It’s getting cold out again!  When the air gets chilly, it’s time to EAT Chili!

I love this recipe for many reasons.

1. It’s EASY!  Toss it in the slow-cooker and it basically cooks itself.
2. It’s FAST prep.  It’s just a little chopping, opening a few cans, and measuring some spices. BOOM, yumminess ensues!
3. It’s DELICIOUS!  When I make this chili, my husband celebrates, my toddler ACTUALLY eats meat, and the clouds open up and angels sing.  Magical.

BUSY MOMMA TIP:  Double the ingredients and divide evenly between your slow-cooker and a gallon freezer bag.  Label the gallon freezer bag with the name of the recipe, number of servings it makes, and cooking instructions.  Freeze for an easy, pre-prepped meal for another night!

I’d love to hear how you and your family enjoy this recipe! Did you made a variation of this and love it even more?
