For many years, I have struggled with being ‘mysteriously’ ill from foods I have eaten. It took me a long time to figure out that bell peppers and gluten were making me really sick. After I had a baby, dairy seemed to be a new […]
It is so nice to have a hot meal ready for you when you get home… especially if its healthy and tasty! If this sounds good to you, break out your slow cooker and give this recipe a try!
I like to buy local grass fed beef at a nearby butcher shop. They sell stew meat, steaks and ground beef etc. I wasn’t sure exactly what to do with my stew meat. So, a while back, I quickly threw together some simple ingredients, set my croc-pot and hoped for the best. Well, as it turns out, it was delicious!
Not only is this a simple recipe, but it used the ingredients I had on-hand. Hopefully I can share this with other busy moms who could enjoy an easy, healthy dinner! As always, this recipe is gluten and dairy free!
Ingredients:
2 Pounds Stew Meat
2 Large Yams (Sweet Potatoes) – cut into large cubes
1 Medium Onion – Chopped
2 Cups Water
1 ½ teaspoons Salt
½ teaspoon Pepper
1 Tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar (gluten free)
2 Tablespoons Tapioca Flour (or corn starch) – optional
½ Cup Water – optional
In a large slow-cooker, Place the chopped onion and yams into the bottom. Pour the 2 Cups water and 1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar over the top and stir.
Place the stew meat on top and season with salt and pepper.
Cook on Low for approximately 5 hours.
Optional: (About 20 minutes before you serve the stew) in a bowl, mix together the ½ Cup water and 2 Tablespoons of Tapioca Flour. Once there are no more lumps, add to the stew and stir-in to combine. This will thicken the stew a bit.
