Slow Cooker Sunday- Pepper Beef Goulash



Pepper Beef Goulash

It has been a crazy week weather wise here in Wisconsin. Earlier in the week we set a record all time high for February of 71 F.  Today the weather has returned to a more seasonal 30 F and snowy. So a perfect day for some comfort food.  This stew is really healthy and easy to make. Just put all the ingredients in the crockpot and in 4 hours you have dinner. I severed mine over steamed brown rice, but noodles or potatoes would work just as well.



1/2 cup water
1 can ( 6 ounce) tomato paste
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 small yellow onion diced
1 small red pepper chopped into 1/2 inch chunks
1 small green pepper chopped into 1/2 inch chunks
Salt and pepper to taste

Hot cooked rice

Add the tomato paste, spices and water to the bottom of the slow cooker. Mix well. Add the rest of the ingredients. Cover and cook on high for 4 to 5 hours. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve over hot rice. Serves 4
