By Lalamirand

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs. beef stew meat
• 16 oz. baby carrots
• 8 oz. mushrooms, quartered (I didn’t add these because my husband doesn’t like them, but the recipe begs for mushrooms if you ask me!)

• 4 cloves garlic, crushed or minced (or 1 tsp. garlic powder)
• 2 beef bouillon cubes
• 1 tsp. dried oregano
• 1 c. red wine
• 1/2 c. half and half

Preparation

Step 1

Instructions:

Dump all ingredients except the rice and corn starch into your slow cooker. Stir to combine.

Cook on low for 8 hours. If you are home, stir a couple times during the day.

A half hour before serving, prepare rice according to package directions. (If you are serving brown rice, allow longer for cooking time.)

While rice cooks, add corn starch to ½ c. cold water, and mix very well with a whisk or fork. Stir this corn starch slurry into the beef mixture in your crockpot.

To serve these slow cooker beef tips, place rice in a bowl, and scoop beef and vegetables over the rice. Enjoy!
