The Ultimate Slow Cooker Ground Beef Stew 🥘
Ingredients
1 lb Lean Ground Beef
1 Medium Onion, finely diced
2 Cloves Garlic, minced
1.5 cups Potatoes (Yukon Gold or Red), cubed
1.5 cups Carrots, sliced or chopped
1 cup Green Peas (frozen or fresh)
2 cups Beef Broth (low sodium preferred)
1 can (8 oz) Tomato Sauce
1 tsp Salt (adjust to taste)
½ tsp Black Pepper
1 tsp Italian Seasoning (or a mix of Thyme and Oregano)
1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce (optional, for extra depth)
Fresh Parsley for garnish
Instructions
Brown the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with the diced onions until the meat is no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.
Assemble: Place the cooked beef and onion mixture into your Slow Cooker.
Add Veggies & Liquids: Add the potatoes, carrots, minced garlic, tomato sauce, beef broth, and seasonings. Stir everything together.
Slow Cook: * Low Setting: Cook for 7–8 hours.
High Setting: Cook for 3–4 hours.
The Final Step: About 20–30 minutes before serving, stir in the green peas. This ensures they stay bright and firm rather than mushy.
Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot!
