Have I told you lately how much I love my slow-cooker? I found this recipe in my 21 Day Fix Extreme eating plan, and I LOVED it, except that the beef wasn’t as tender as I like it to be in my stews! SO, I adapted the recipe for the slow cooker and I was so excited with the results!

This recipe is a keeper!

Notes

Adapted from 21 Day Fix Extreme Eating Plan.

Ingredients

1 butternut squash
1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp black pepper
1.5 lb lean stew beef
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cups low sodium beef broth
1 red bell pepper, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tbsp dried parsley (or 1/4 cup fresh, finely chopped)
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 cup tomatoes, chopped

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. First, cut the butternut squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out seeds. Place the butternut squash on a baking sheet, pulp side up. Brush pulp with olive oil and sprinkle with salt & pepper. Roast the butternut squash for 40-45 minutes (or until pulp is fork tender.) Allow to cool. When cool, cut pulp into cubes and set aside.
Combine all remaining ingredients in a slow cooker. Cook on LOW 4-6 hours or until meat is fully cooked and tender. Add the roasted butternut squash cubes to the slow cooker in the last 15-20 minutes.
Enjoy!
