[Cafe Jenn]

Today's challenge dinner is Goulash.

Ingredients that will be needed:

• 1 1/2 cups Onions, chopped
• 1 cup Green Peppers, chopped
• 2 large Beets or 1 can of Beets, diced
• 1 cup of Baby Carrots
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1-1 1/2 lbs of stew beef
• 2 (6 oz) cans Tomato Paste

This looks really good. I'll have to wait until next week to get the ingredients (lack of funds). I use the slow cooker maybe once a month although I should use it more. It makes meal preparation easier and the food tastes so good.

I use my slow cooker a couple times a month usually.  I don't think I will try this out, my kids and I are not big on peppers and onions. The rest of it sounds good though

[MommyofSCC]

I normally use my crock pot at least once a week, and, not a fan of beats so we won't be trying this one. :(

[swdesigns]

We make something similar to this all the time! Yes I would try this.  I don't use my slow cooker often enough, but these recipes are great reasons to use it more.  Love the idea of putting beets in. 

[sarahfire]

We love goulash but I've never put beets or carrots in it. I usually make it on top of the stove but I'll have to try it in the crockpot sometime.

[Neon1980]

Sounds delicious. Will definitely be trying this one as well.

 I don't use my slow cooker nearly as often as I should, but that's due to bad planning.  I won't be trying this recipe becasue no one in my house eats beets...yuck!

[Bmat]

I will try this recipe. It is different and looks good. The beets are something I wouldn't have ordinarily added, but I like! I use my slow cooker at least once a week, and if we count the little slow cooker that I use for oatmeal, then it would be twice a week.

[blueeyedpixie]

I don't think anybody would eat it:( I've never tried it... I don't get to use my slow cooker as much as I want...

[Madelaine]

I think I will try this one and we use the slow cooker all the time!
