Featured Recipe: Scrumptious Crock Pot Beef Stew
It seems like I’ve made this beef stew forever – so long that I really have no idea where the recipe came from or if I just made it up. Alicia mentioned the other day that she couldn’t find the recipe for my beef stew in any of our books, and we realized we’d never written about it.
A cryin’ shame! This error must be corrected immediately, and thus, here it is on Kitchen Scoop.
When I tell you that I couldn’t even find a written recipe in any of my files, I am not fibbing. This is one of those endlessly flexible stews. You don’t have to use the exact same vegetables every time or measure precise amounts. That said my beef stew does have a few secret ingredients that should definitely be included. Think of them more as the flavor base: the onion soup mix, the Worcestershire, the dry spices, tomatoes and the mushroom soup.
So this is my beef stew secret. Alicia and I are both thrilled to have an official copy in our virtual recipe box. Let us know if you like it as much as we do.

What you're saying..
I was thrilled to see your column in the Charlotte Observer this morning.
A friend gave me your first book as a Christmas present one year. I use it all the time. Actually, we had Two-for One Noodles last night. I've purchased all your books. When we moved, the cookbooks were packed up in storage. I went out and purchased more just to have them with me! I rely on them so much.
Just wanted you to know I’m a faithful follower.
Thanks,
