"Talk of joy: there may be better things than beef stew and baked potatoes and homemade bread--there may be." David Grayson, "Adventures in Contentment," 1907
This is one of my all time favorite crock pot recipes, because you can throw it together in a snap! Beef Stew is hot, hearty comfort food, just right for a frigid winter evening. Today's dish takes only minutes to prep, but plan ahead so you can allow 10 hours of cooking time.
Serve with a big crusty hunk of bread on the side, or ladle over rice or egg noodles. Have a salad to make the meal complete! I've adapted this from my GE Slow Cooker Recipe Book, the book that came right along with my crock pot. Hope you enjoy! Happy eating, and have a great weekend!
Italian-Style Beef Stew
3 lbs boneless beef stew cubes
1 10 ounce box frozen mixed vegetables
1 15 ounce can tomato sauce
1 T Worcestershire sauce
1 small onion, chopped
1 1.5 ounce envelope beef stew seasoning mix
Combine all ingredients in the crock pot. Stir well. Cover and cook on low 10 hours. If you prefer, cook on high for 5 hours. Serves 4.

I have to substitute beef with lamb and try the recipe...as we don't eat beef!
Wow, this looks good! And it's just my type of recipe: throw everything in and ignore it until it's done, lol. I've got a sweet potato stew in the crock pot as I type :)
Oh, thank you, Maria--a crock pot recipe!

This sounds like a good one! I've got (so the story goes) an Italian-style beef stew recipe that I make all the time. So, of course I had to check yours out to compare. The ingredients are a bit different, but this sounds delish! I'll have to try it out - thanks!
@Happy Whisk: The you're in for a treat!
@Joanna: I hope your hubby likes this. Tell baby I was a vegetarian too, at one time. I'm not quite sure how I managed, because I love meat--especially beef!
