Now I realise that it is summer but I still love my slow cooker at this time of year. The main reason is that I don’t have to stand by the hob and cook dinner. All I simply do is put the ingredients into the slow cooker pot and let in cook. Then at the end of the day I have a hot meal to serve my little family. It’s saves me time and energy. Plus I get a yummy dinner on the table and this one was so tasty.

Slow Cooker Beef Stew was a yummy dish that we all enjoyed. One of the best parts about a slow cooker is you can use cheap, chewy meat and it makes it very soft and tender. The beef stewing steak in this stew melted in the mouth and it was so tasty. I made double of this meal and I stored the leftovers in the freezer. We ate them on another occasion and it was just as tasty as the first time, if not better. However you decide to eat this dish, as always, please enjoy. Thank you xxx
