Ingredients for 4-Ingredient Beef Stew
- 2 lbs beef stew meat, cubed into 1-inch pieces
- 1 packet onion soup mix (choose a low-sodium option for a healthier version)
- 1 can (10.75 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup (low-fat or gluten-free alternatives available)
- 1 cup beef broth (low-sodium for heart health)
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prep the Beef
Place the cubed beef stew meat at the bottom of your slow cooker. Ensure the pieces are evenly spread out for uniform cooking.
Step 2: Add the Seasoning
Sprinkle the onion soup mix evenly over the beef. This seasoning blend provides the savory foundation for your stew.
Step 3: Add the Liquids
Pour the beef broth and condensed cream of mushroom soup over the meat and seasoning. These ingredients will combine to create a rich and flavorful gravy.
Step 4: Stir and Cook
Mix all the ingredients gently to combine. Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low heat for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and infused with flavor.
Step 5: Final Touches
Before serving, stir the stew well to ensure all ingredients are evenly mixed. Serve hot with your choice of sides.
