No Peek Stew Recipe

2 pounds stew meat

1 package onion soup mix -- dry

1 can cream of mushroom soup

1 can ginger ale

1 pound carrot

1 pound potato

Mix the meat and soups together. At this point I will divide into 4 portions (cooking for 2 adults and 1 toddler) and freeze in ziplock baggies.

The night before cooking day, I ll pull the baggie out of the freezer and pour into crockpot and cover with 1/2 can of gingerale (I have done this with the meat mix frozen, but thawed is probably healthier). Then I ll add carrots and potatoes and let cook all day on medium heat. If I know that I ll be in a major hurry on cooking morning, I ll cut the potatoes and carrots the night before and have them in the fridge in water with a little lemon juice to prevent the potatoes from browing.
