slow cooker ground beef stew
I love stews. I make them all the time in many different ways. This is a different way to use ground beef for a nice hearty winter meal. I don't like a lot of prep on busy days, so I love that I don't have to pre-cook the ground beef and using little baby potatoes that I don't need to cut. I prefer to serve my stews with cornbread or biscuits.

3Pour mixture on top of beef and veggies. Stir gently. Press bay leaves into stew mixture.
-
4Set for 6-8 hours. Serve as is with some corn bread or biscuits.
