Ingredients

pounds beef stew meat
1 (10.5-ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 packet onion soup mix or use homemade blend
8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced (or canned and drained)
1 cup sour cream
8 ounces cream cheese, softened Salt and black pepper to taste

Optional garnish: fresh parsley or thyme

Optional thickeners:
½ teaspoon xanthan gum mixed with
1 teaspoon olive oil (low carb)
1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with
1 tablespoon cold water (standard)


Instructions

  • Spray your slow cooker with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.

  • Add the beef stew meat, cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix, and mushrooms to the crockpot. Stir to combine.

  • Cover and cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours, until the beef is fork-tender and infused with flavor.

  • About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the softened cream cheese and mix until fully melted. Add sour cream and stir until smooth and creamy.

  • Taste and season with salt and pepper.

  • If the sauce is too thin, thicken it with xanthan gum mixture (for low carb) or cornstarch slurry.

  • Serve hot over your choice of egg noodles, mashed potatoes, riced cauliflower, or veggie noodles.

 

  • Garnish with chopped parsley or thyme if desired.

Notes

  • You can prep everything the night before and store it in the fridge, then start the slow cooker in the morning.

  • This meal freezes well—store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 3 months.

  • For extra flavor, brown the beef before adding to the crockpot (optional).

 

  • Stir in a splash of beef broth if you prefer a looser sauce.
