Ingredients
- 1 -1 1⁄2 lb stew beef chunk
- 1 (10 1/2ounce) can Campbell's French onion soup
- 1 ounce French onion soup mix (with or without mushrooms)

Directions
- Cut stew beef into small cubes 1/2 to 1 inch in size. Put in bottom of slow cooker.

- Add packet of french onion soup mix and can of mushrooms.
- Drain around 1/4th of liquid from can of french onion soup, then add the rest to slow cooker.
- Cook on low heat for 5-6 hours, until beef is quite tender.
- Use ladle or other implement to drain the majority of the broth from the slow cooker. This is done so that your stew will not be too soupy.
