This past weekend we celebrated Shaun’s (my husband) 30th BIRTHDAY! I’d say it went off without a hitch, as we watched football on a big projector screen, drank lots of beer and ate lots of great food. Not to mention all the family and friends that came out to wish him and his twin brother a happy birthday. It was a good night indeed and he enjoyed it all! Olivia even had a good time showing off her little baby steps that she has started to take around the house. (We are up to about 10-12 steps.)
After all the dip, chips, sausage meatballs, burgers and beer — I need to detox. Oh, I forgot to mention the birthday meal we had for lunch on Sunday at Logan’s Roadhouse. Detox diet starts TODAY and I am showcasing this easy crock pot stew recipe. One of my favorite things about cold weather is making stews or soups to help warm you up. I usually tend to eat my soups with cornbread but this go round I wanted a tortilla. It may not be the wisest choice regarding the detox but one won’t hurt me.
RIGHT???
I told you I had another crock pot recipe coming your way and this one won’t disappoint!
Add olive oil to a skillet and place on medium/high heat. Add the beef stew meat and cook until brown approximately 5 minutes.
Place onions into the crock pot followed by pepper and ro-tel tomatoes. Top with browned meat, garlic, paprika, potatoes, beef broth and sauce. Cook on low for 4 hours and then add salt and corn starch. Mix the whole pot and cook for an additional hour.
Serve with cornbread or tortillas.

Happy Birthday Hubby! This stew sounds so incredible! I was looking at poblanos the other day and trying to figure out what I could make with them…guess I need to go back and buy some!
YUM! Happy birthday to the hubby!! This looks so comforting
What a great way to celebrate the big 3-0!! An I’m totally all over this with the crisp weather we’vebeen having!
Ooooh this looks so awesome. Can we get a round of applause for poblano peppers? They make everything amazing. I just posted a chili today too but I will have to try this one next. There is NEVER too much chili/stew in the fall.
This looks so comforting and I love that it’s made in the crockpot too!
Happy birthday to hubs!! And you know I will be trying this. Love your recipes!!
Ohh definitely going to have to make this sometime. The hubs will love it!
