Ingredients:
- 2 lbs beef stew meat
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste (optional)
Instructions:
-
Prepare the beef and mushrooms:
Place the beef stew meat and sliced mushrooms in the slow cooker. -
Mix the sauce:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, sour cream, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth and combined. -
Combine and season:
Pour the sauce mixture over the beef and mushrooms in the slow cooker. Stir everything together to make sure the beef is coated in the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste, if desired. -
Slow cook:
Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, until the beef is tender and the flavors have melded together. -
Serve:
Once the beef is tender and the sauce is creamy, give it a final stir. Serve the creamy beef tips and mushrooms over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
Tips:
- For extra flavor: Sauté the beef stew meat in a hot skillet for 2-3 minutes before adding it to the slow cooker. This helps caramelize the meat and brings out more depth in the flavor.
- Make it a one-pot meal: You can add in some chopped vegetables like carrots or potatoes to make it a heartier meal.
- Leftovers: This dish keeps well in the fridge for up to 3 days and can be reheated for easy leftovers.
