This stew is hearty, and the chili powder and taco seasoning give it the South-of-the-Border flavor!  Hot corn and flour tortillas are perfect!

  • dash cayenne for heat; optional
  • 1 c frozen whole onions, or 1 cup chopped fresh
  • 1 can whole tomatoes (28 oz)

Procedure:

  1.  In hot skillet, dip chunked meat in flour, and salt and pepper seasoning, and brown meat on all sides. 
  2. Prepare the slow cooker with olive oil spray, and heat.  Add the pre-browned meat, tomatoes, onions, and chili powder. 
  3. Cover and cook on low 9 – 11 hours until meat is very tender.
