WW Beef Stew

WW Beef Stew

1 onion, chopped
1 tsp minced roasted garlic
1/2 pound baby carrots
Salt & Pepper
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cut into bite-sized chunks
4 small uncooked potatoes, peeled and cut into bite-sized chunks
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
16 oz lean beef top sirloin, cut into bite-sized chunks
14 oz canned beef broth
3 tsp honey
8 prunes
1 Tbsp tomato paste
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 Tbsp flour to thicken, if desired

Put everything in the slow-cooker. Stir and cover. Cook for 6-8 hours or until beef and veggies are tender. If you want thicker gravy, combine 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid with 1 Tbsp flour and whisk until smooth. Stir into the mixture in the slow-cooker and cook another 10 minutes.

This was OK...John liked it a lot more than I did. I didn't care for the sweetness with the beef.
