Welcome your family home for dinner with this delicious full-flavored beef stew! You won’t have to heat up the house because it all cooks in your slow cooker! Ummmm!
1-1/2 pounds boneless beef bottom round, cut into 1-inch pieces
Ground black pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cooking oil
1 (10-1/2 ounces) can condensed French onion soup
1 cup dry red wine
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning, crushed
3 cups mushrooms, cut in half
3 medium carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 cup frozen small whole white onions
1/4 cup water
1. Sprinkle the beef with the black pepper and coat with 2 tablespoons of the flour. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add the beef and cook until browned, stirring often. Transfer cooked beef to a 3-1/2-quart slow cooker.
2. Add the soup, wine, garlic, Italian seasoning, mushrooms, carrots and onions. Cover and cook on Low for 10 to 12 hours or on High for 4 to 5 hours or until the meat is fork-tender.
3. In a small bowl, combine the remaining flour and water until smooth; stir into the beef mixture in slow cooker. Turn heat to High; cover and cook for 15 minutes or until slightly thickened. Makes 6 servings.

Hi Emily, I bet you think I have forgotten you. Nope, I have had a summer that was crazy busy and on top of that I took care of my daughter for three weeks while she is recovering from serious shoulder surgery. I am home now and have nothing on my plate, so to speak, until October. I am a happy camper here at home spending HOURS visiting my blogging friends again. I am working towards being a computer potato with my laptop. HA!
Your beef stew sounds delicious. I often use onion soup for seasoning but adding the Italian seasoning sounds so good. I am up for trying this recipe. Smile.
Enjoy your day and happy cooking.

Hi Jeanne, it’s so good to hear from you. I know what you mean about being busy! It has been the same here. I hope your daughter is all better now. I’m sure she enjoyed all the “spoiling” from mom! I have been canning tomatoes but I think I have done enough to last until next summer. I am looking forward to cooler weather when things will slow down some and I can have more free time to visit my many blogging friends. Thanks again for stopping by! I’ll be over to visit you soon!
Many blessings,
Emily
You must have the best fed family on the block!
