PROVENCAL BEEF STEW



Provencal beef stew image

This is the sort of stew that takes just a few minutes of prep time in the morning, and after letting it cook all day, is the perfect thing to indulge in after a long, chilly day. Puréed beans add a wonderfully thick texture to this robust beef stew. It's a simple, nutritious way to thicken any bean-based soup. The stew also has onions, mushrooms, carrots, crushed tomatoes, dried oregano, dried thyme, as well as fresh thyme for garnish if you have some on hand. After sautéing the onion, mushrooms, and garlic, it all comes together in the slow cooker, and you can walk away and let everything meld for 6-7 hours...right until dinnertime.
