My mom has a great stew recipe that I love. I have shared it in my cookbook and it is a family favorite. I have yet to find a recipe that I like as much as hers. However, this 5 Ingredient Slow Cooker Stew is close! It is good and also so easy. This stew is flavorful and the beef is amazingly tender.

I am a Canbassador for Cans Get You Cooking and this is a perfect “Cantry” recipe. Two of the 5 ingredients are canned soups! It uses condensed cream of mushroom and tomato soup. I love to keep a well stocked “Cantry” to make recipes. I like to keep items like canned soups, tomatoes, beans, fruit, and vegetables on hand. It makes it so easy as a busy mom to get dinner on the table and this five ingredient slow cooker stew is a cinch!

It starts with adding frozen stew vegetables in to bottom of your slow cooker. Then you top it with stew meat. In a bowl, you combine to two canned soups with a package of dry onion soup mix. Finally, pour this mixture over the stew meat. This cooks for 6-8 hours on low. That’s it!

    I tried this recipe a few months ago and my 11-year-old loved it. I love quick, simple, short ingredient recipes such as this one.

  2. I am 87 years old and new to cooking. I often use a slow cooker as my other cooking skills are fairly bad. I have found recipes here and this beef stew has my mouth watering. Do I need to cook or brown the stew meat before placing it in the crock pot?

    1. It might fit in there. If needed, mix it all together and add what will fit in you pot. Then place the rest in a freezer bag for another time.

    Tried today for dinner tonight. So easy. I did add fresh mushrooms and also added about can of red wine to the soup. This is an awesome meal when you have no time to fix your own potatoes, carrots and any other veggies you want in your stew.
