Savory Fall Stew

This meal could have so many variations that it would make your head spin!! Never fear, anything you add to this will make it great! (Unless you're Rachel Green...then you need to know that green peas and pudding DO NOT go together with ground beef in a trifle.)

This is another Crock Pot Meal that can be prepared ahead of time to make your life easier. 

Ingredients:

1 C lentils
1 C water
2 Q Vegetable broth
2 C mushrooms
2 T thyme
1 C carrots
1/2 C celery
1 sweet onion (chopped)
1 lb. ground turkey or ground beef (browned)
1 C tomatoes
1 T black pepper
1 T basil
2 garlic cloves
corn, green beans, cabbage, okra, etc. Any vegetable tastes great in this stew. 


How To:

Brown meat. Let cool, then place in a zipper bag. 

Add all other ingredients to the zipper bag. 

Store in the fridge or freezer. 

Pull out when ready to cook. Turn crock pot on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-6 hours. Serve with your favorite Grilled Cheese Sammich.


It's REALLY that easy.
