I love good slow cooker meals – especially toward the end of the summer when every minute counts! This one is super easy and tasty too!<\/p>\n

Ingredients:
\n2 lbs stew meat
\n3 tbsp olive oil
\n1 cup onion, sliced
\n1\/2 cup yellow pepper, chopped
\n1 large clove garlic, finely minced
\n2 cup stock (preferably beef)
\n1\/2 tsp salt
\n1\/8 tsp pepper
\n1 can (8 oz.) chopped tomatoes
\n1 can (4 oz.) mushrooms
\n1\/3 cup barbecue sauce
\n3 tbsp cornstarch
\n1\/4 cup cold water <\/p>\n

Instructions:
\nIn frying pan saut\u00e9 sliced onion, pepper, garlic and meat in olive oil. Add stock, salt and pepper, tomatoes, mushrooms and barbecue sauce and cook for a few minutes. Place in slow cooker and cook on low heat for about 8-10 hours. Just before serving, mix cold water and cornstarch in a little bowl and add to the stew to thicken. <\/p>\n

Serve with hot brown rice. <\/p>\n
