It is so easy when you can prepare your entire meal in one pot. This is the first of several one pot wonder recipes.
Healthy Beef Stew
Heat large pot over medium heat and add olive oil. Add meat and brown on all sides. Be sure to give the beef plenty of room, as Julie Childs would say, don't crowd the beef!
Remove beef and add onions until light brown. Add all other spices and add meat back in.
Add broth and tomatoes and bring to boil. Reduce heat to simmer for 20 minutes or until beef is tender. Add sweet potato and cook another 20 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.
To prepare this in a slow cooker, simply add all ingredients except the potato. Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 to 8. Transfer to large pot, add potato and simmer 20 minutes before serving.
