Also we want to talk about the delish factor. This slow cooked Smoky Beef and Pumpkin Stew is all kinds of drool worthy goodness! It’s the perfect dinner for a chilly winter night. Actually it’s also yum as cold too, so you could defineitly enjoy in summer!

We named it smoky because there is bacon in it. We don’t technically know if this is the correct description but it tastes bacon-y and we think bacon tastes kinda smoky (let us know what you guys think!).

We added pumpkin because pumpkin is probably our all time favourite vegetable and it just made this stew extra thick and yum.

Oh we how we LOVE this recipe. 

Always merrymaking,

P.s. We’d highly recommend making these crunchy grain free bread rolls to go with this epic healthy slow cooker recipe.

P.p.s. We reckon this recipe will serve 4-6 people depending how hungry you are.
