Beef Stew in a Crockpot

6 - 8 servings

1 lb stew beef
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp A1 steak sauce
1 tsp salt
1 tsp garlic powder
3 cups potatoes, cut into bite size pieces
2 cups carrots, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 medium onion, chopped
1 bay leaf
1 can whole tomatoes
water or broth

Mix the beef, worcestshire sauce, A1 steak sauce, salt and garlic powder. Coating the beef well. Set aside.

Spray your crockpot with cooking spray. Put in the potatoes, then the carrots, pour the meat mixture next, the can of tomatoes, the onions, cover with water or broth, then lay the bay leaf on top.

Replace the cover and cook on low for 8 hours. Remove the bay leaf. Stir the stew to mix ingredients.

Keep a few boxes of jiffy corn muffin mix on hand and bake up corn muffins to go with the beef stew. A nice pot of white rice would be good too.

Put the leftovers in a freezer container, label, date, and freeze. You can also freeze any leftover corn muffins too. Leftovers make 1 or 2 meals to put in the freezer.
