The Easiest, Yummiest Beef Stew

Originally named "Lazy Day Beef Stew," I got this recipe from www.cheekykitchen.com. It is soo easy to make, and tastes delicious! Everyone loves it. Just don't worry about all the sodium going into it. It's worth it! 

Ingredients:

2 pounds beef stew meat
1 small bag baby carrots
3 stalks celery, chopped
8-10 red potatoes, chopped (I really only use 3-4)
1 onion, chopped
1 pouch Au Jus gravy mix
2 pouches brown gravy mix
1 pouch ranch dressing powder
3 cups water
* I've also added a packet of beef stew seasoning if I happen to not have ALL of the other seasoning packets, and it's turned out great!

Directions: Throw it all in the crockpot in the morning, stir until mixed. Set crock pot to low and don't even worry about it for 6-8 hours.  You can also cook this faster without a crock pot, just throw it into a pan on the stove and simmer/boil for a couple of hours.Yay for easy dinners!
