Recipe of the Day

With cold winter weather blanketing so much of the United States right now, I thought I would share an easy and delicious Beef Stew recipe.

Since this recipe can be prepared in a crockpot, it is great for both those who work outside the home, and for those who may be home but find themselves too busy to spend a lot of time in the kitchen preparing a meal.

INGREDIENTS:

1 pound beef stew meat, diced and trimmed

1-14.5 oz. can of diced tomatoes

1 pound mixed vegetables, frozen

approx. 6-8 small to medium sized red potatoes, washed and diced (not peeled)

 Fajita Spice

Garlic Salt

Water

PREPARATION:

Put stew meat into a large crockpot.  Pour in canned tomatoes, the frozen mixed vegetables and the diced red potatoes.  Add water, filling to approx. 1 inch from the top. (leave a little room so it doesn’t simmer over!)  Sprinkle in desired amounts of fajita spice and garlic salt.  I use approx. 3 tablespoons of fajita spice and just a couple dashes of garlic salt.

Set slowcooker on low setting and slow cook 6-8 hours.

This is delicious served with jalapeno cornbread!
