On cold winter days in the Midwest, nothing beats the comfort of a hearty stew. This slow cooker poor man’s stew is a favorite in our house, not only for its simplicity, but also for its comforting flavors. The dish gets its name from the fact that it uses affordable ingredients that many of us already have in the pantry. It’s perfect for those nights when you’re pressed for time but craving a delicious, home-cooked meal. With a slow cooker doing most of the work, this recipe is a lifesaver for busy professionals like me who want to come home to a ready-to-eat feast.
This stew pairs perfectly with a slice of warm crusty bread or a simple side salad, making it a complete meal. You can also try serving it over a bed of rice or noodles to soak up the flavorful broth. A dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of grated cheese can add extra richness to each bowl.
