Monday Night

Tonight I cooked a beef stew. It had a light gravy, carrots, onions, celery, potatoes and beef stew. It got a four out of five stars with the family (four out of five liked it). The meat ended up being very tender and the boys were even ok with the veggies.

Here is the recipe...

2 pounds beef stew meat cubed
1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp. ketchup
1/4 cup flour
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 - 2 tsp. paprika
1 small can beef broth
1 bay leaf
4 carrots sliced
2 onions chopped finely
1 rib celery, sliced
3 potatoes diced.

Turn the slow cooker on low and add meat in the bottom. Combine flour, salt, pepper and paprika. Stir into meat and coat. Leave for 15 minutes. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Cook on low 10 to 12 hours and stir before serving.
