Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef stew meat, cut into cubes
• 1 pound carrots, peeled and sliced into rounds
• 1 can (10.5 ounces) condensed tomato soup
• 1 packet onion soup mix

Slow Cooker Amish Beef Stew: Directions

1. If you’d like clean-up to be a breeze afterwards, lightly grease the inside of your 5- to 6-quart slow cooker with a touch of oil or cooking spray before you get going.
2. Place the cubed beef stew meat into the slow cooker first, then add the sliced carrots on top.
3. Open the packet of onion soup mix and sprinkle it evenly over the beef and carrots so every piece gets some flavor.
4. Spoon the condensed tomato soup on top of everything, spreading it out as best you can.
5. Using a big spoon, stir everything together slowly until the beef and carrots are fully coated in the soup and seasoning.
6. Put the lid on the slow cooker. Cook on low heat for 8 to 9 hours, or on high heat for 4 to 5 hours, until the beef feels very soft and the carrots poke easily with a fork.
7. Once it’s done cooking, give the stew one more gentle stir. Taste it to see if you’d like to add a pinch of salt or pepper.
8. Scoop the hot stew into bowls and serve right away while it’s warm and cozy.
