Ingredients

    • 1/4 cup flour
    • 1/8 tsp black pepper
    • 1/8 tsp paprika
    • 1 1/2 lb stew beef, lean, cut into 1-inch pieces
    • 1 Tbsp canola oil
    • 8 oz sliced mushrooms
    • 1 cup sliced celery
    • 1 1/2 cups chopped onion
    • 2 cans (14 oz each) low sodium beef broth
    • 1 small bay leaf
    • 1/3 cup pearl barley
    • 2 cups sliced carrot
    • 2 cups diced turnip
    • 1 large baking potato, peeled and cubed
    • 1 cup frozen green peas, thawed

Preparation

    • Preheat oven to 400°. In a bowl or resealable plastic bag, combine flour, pepper and paprika. Toss beef in flour mixture until coated evenly.
    • In a slow-cooker, combine oil and floured beef cubes and cook for 30 minutes set on high to brown the beef.
    • Add remaining ingredients, reduce to low setting and cook for 8 hours. For thicker gravy, cook and additional 2 hours on low setting.
