1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with juice

directions

Combine beef tips with flour in the crock pot.
Add remaining ingredients & mix together.
Cook on High for 6 hours.
**To change it to a thicker consistency, which I prefer, take 4-6 cups without the meat (2 cups at a time) and blend in a food processor or with a hand blender.
Cook on low for an additional hour.
Serve with Honey Cornbread #270877.
