The weather cooled, for a quick moment, in Michigan while I was getting ready for my Hiking Adventure in Shenandoah National Park. I put this dinner in the slow cooker and headed out the door. I went for a hike in a local park and then ran some errands while I was out and about.
When I got home, my house smelled amazing and I was starving. I put some potatoes on to boil for mashing and made a seasonal saute of corn and zucchini as a side dish. These beef tips are delicious over rice or noodles too. Or if you are too hungry to wait for anything else to cook, it makes a wonderful hot beef sandwich when placed on a piece of bread.

Coming home to a delicious meal when I've been out and about has got to be my favorite thing about slow cookers! I'd love a bowl of your beef tips and gravy, Wendy!
ReplyDeleteThanks Stacy.
DeleteI can just smell the aroma filling your house. There is so much beefy goodness there. I'm sure I'd be picking at it while making the potatoes and side dish.
ReplyDeleteOne of the pleasures of cooking Karen.
DeleteGoodness, this looks delicious! I can't wait to give this one a try. I love meals like this in the fall.
ReplyDeleteSo do I Terri.
DeleteThis looks so good! Perfect now that the weather is getting ready to turn cool. I'd go for the open faced since I am hiding out from carbs this month.
