Gardening season is coming on soon, so you might enjoy this Crock Pot recipe that you can leave alone while outside doing your gardening. It is a very thicky stew, and, we think, delicious. I want to give credit to Allrecipes where I originally found it.
The photo doesn't look that appealing; it was what was left and ready to put in the frig before I thought of taking a photo. It will give you an idea of the texture of it.
