  • 8 oz mushrooms sliced

Recipe Notes

Spray the slow cooker with non-stick spray then place the meat, carrots and mushrooms in the slow cooker, and then pour the wet ingredients on top then stir to combine. This prevents splashing on the sides of the slow cooker which could cause burning of the sauce that splashed on the sides. You can prep the veggies and meat the night before, and keep them in the refrigerator in a plastic bag. I serve over cooked egg noodles that I toss with parsley. The final product is very liquidly, you can thicken the sauce if desired, with a slurry made from cornstarch and water.
