Easy Beef Stew
Most likely you have these ingredients or hand. This is a quick, easy recipe that will take just minutes to prepare in the morning. Step aside and let the crock pot do the work. I love to use my Cuisinart food processor as I can cut up the vegetables in a flash. I typically prepare vegetables in the beginning of my week in my food processor, then store them in glass lock containers in the fridge to be used for many recipes and just salads or in a stir fry.
