Slow Cooker Ground Beef Stew
Slow Cooker Ground Beef Stew
Incorporating ideas from other reviewers, I adapted a skillet version of ground beef stew to a slow cooker version when we needed a meal ready when we got home. We loved this over hot biscuits. The ultimate comfort food with veggies included! Don't let the spices scare you or skimp on them. Their presence makes this a totally delicious meal!
