Fall is now officially here and Utah started off with true fall weather for a few days. Today’s gonna be a little more on the warm side though with a high of 80.
So this fall weather definitely got me in the mood for fall food and this slow cooker beef stew is a great option. It is so simple to toss together in the slow cooker. The results are a delicious thick and hearty stew that warms you up!
This stew is similar to one that I make in the oven that was my mom’s recipe. Those of you that have my cookbook and have made it know what I’m talking about!
