Slow Cooker Beef Casserole

I adore my Slow Cooker - it winter it helps me create warming dishes that keeps 6 tummies full. In summer I use it to create meals without turning on the oven (and in so doing heating up the house more). What they don’t tell you on the instruction manuel is that the ceramic dish needs to be greased before you use it, every time. It makes cleaning easier and prevents harsh rubbing (which comes with the possibility of scratching the ceramic surface).

I swap between serving this as is with a nice loaf of crusty bread (with butter) or over rice. Either way, my family happily eats this. Feel free to swap the vegetables listed for what you happen to have in the fridge/freezer.

Recipe:

500g beef, chopped (I like Gravy Beef, it’s a cheap cut made for slow cooking)
1 onion, sliced
2 carrots, chopped into 1/2 cm rings
3 potatoes - (about the size of a bar of soap) peeled and chopped into medium sized chunks.
1 x 425g tin Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom soup
1 x sachet Maggi French Onion Soup
1 cup frozen peas

Happy cooking!
