Beef Stew

I just made this stew yesterday because I wanted an easy no-stress meal.

Approximately 1 lb beef for stewing. I buy the already cut packages in the fresh meat section because I hate cutting it myself!
3 medium potatoes
1/2 lb baby carrots
1 package beef stew seasoning

Add any vegetable you like, such as celery. Neither of us like celery so I didn't, this is all that I added and it was yummy!

Cut up your potatoes into even pieces. Put your meat and veggies into your crock pot. I am lazy and didn't even cut the carrots. In a small bowl pour in your seasoning with a cup of water or beef broth. Stir it until it dissolves, or isn't in big chunks anymore. Pour into crock pot. Add water until it is almost all covered. You can use all water, or do a 50/50 water and beef broth. Give it a quick stir. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours, or on high for 3-4.

I served this with the Pillsbury French bread. It would also be good in bread bowls or with rolls.
