INGREDIENT NOTES:

LEAN STEW MEAT:

  • We will use this kind of beef cut because it is lean and it does not have too much fat in it. You can easily cook it in the slow cooker, and it will give a good flavor. Your dish will not get heavy if you use this. Use lean beef tips for another idea in your recipe.

BABY GOLD POTATOES:

  • You will use these potatoes in the slow cooker as well. These will maintain their shape when you cook them in the slow cooker. Also, your recipe will get creamy from adding them too. Another idea for this can be adding red baby potatoes.

LIGHT BUTTER:

  • Butter is an important flavor in your recipe, so we will use the light butter here. It will improve the richness of your dish, and it will not make it too heavy to eat as well. Light buttery spread is another idea for your addition as well.

GARLIC:

  • This will include a savory flavor in your slow cooker recipe. It can also improve the flavors of other components in your dish. Use a little garlic powder as an alternative if you prefer.

ONION POWDER:

  • Using onion powder in your dish will make it easy for you to add the onion taste. You don’t need to include chopped onions in the recipe anymore. Dried minced onion can be another idea for your addition.

LOW-SODIUM BEEF BROTH:

  • This broth is lighter, and it will make a little sauce in your dish. This low-sodium beef broth will add moisture to your meal as well. Add beef stock if you want a different option.

BLACK PEPPER AND SALT:

  • Both of these seasonings will make the flavor of your dish better. Also, you may use Italian seasoning for a different idea.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Take your slow cooker and add lean stew meat and baby potatoes to it.
  2. Include garlic, salt, onion powder, and black pepper on them evenly.
  3. Then you will add the butter between the lean stew meat & potatoes, so it melts.
