Ingredients:

1 lb 2 2 1 1 T 1 tsp 1/2 tsp pinch 1 1 can

beef, cubed potatoes, diced (bite sized) carrots, diced stalk celery, diced Minute tapioca sugar salt pepper onion, quartered  (14.5oz) whole tomatoes, drained Packaged frozen mixed vegetables may be used instead of fresh.

Procedure:

1.  Mix first four ingredients together and put in baking dish or crock pot.
2.  Mix next four ingredents together and sprinkle over meat and vegetable mix
3.  Arrange onions and tomatoes on top of stew mixture and cover very tightly. I use foil then casserole cover.
4.  Bake in oven at 250 for 6 hours and what ever you do. Do not peak!

(Smaller amounts may need less cooking time)
If using a crock pot I always start it on high and turn it to low after about 4 hours.
