Ingredients

  • 2 lb beef chuck
  • 2/3 cup white onion diced
  • 1 cup carrots diced
  • 2/3 cup peas frozen
  • 2 tablespoons garlic minced
  • 2 cups beef broth low sodium
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce gluten free
  • 1/2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 2 teaspoon thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 12 oz cauliflower florets

Instructions

  • Cut the fat off the beef and cut into 1-inch pieces and add it to a slow cooker. Add the salt and pepper.
  • Add the onions, carrots, garlic, tomato paste, worcestershire sauce, balsamic, beef broth and thyme. Cover and set to cook on low 8 hours (or low 4 hours).
  • About 30 minutes before the stew is done, add the cauliflower to a large pot and add water to cover the cauliflower. Bring to a boil. Boil 5-7 minutes or until cauliflower is soft. The smaller your florets, the faster this will be. Drain the cauliflower and set aside to cool 10 minutes.
  • 15 minutes before stew is done add the cauliflower to a blender and blend until smooth. Add the cauliflower and frozen peas to the crockpot. Stir to combine and cook another 15 minutes to warm then serve!
  • Store the stew in the refrigerator up to 5 days or in the freezer up to 90 days.

Notes
