This was a recipe that was just middle of the road for us. We all liked it, just not enough to have again. My family was shocked however when I told them it was a WW recipe, they never would have guessed it.

This was good. I actually just tossed the beef in the flour, then threw everything in the crockpot on low for 6 hours. Worked out great! Thanks for posting.

We really like this recipe. I did throw in 2 handfuls of diced carrots. My DH thought it was a really good stew...so the next night I added a can of corn and green beans and we had stew.

This is really good - the sauce ends up thick and rich and delicious. I didn't mention the weight watchers connection to my guys - they loved it and finished it off. They had theirs on noodles, but I had mine over a baked potato, which was really good. I also added carrots to the mix, which tasted great. Thanks for sharing!

I would give this 10 "Stars" if I could. I have been making this for years. It is so full of flavor that I would not hesitate to serve it to company. It is out of the Weight Watchers cookbook called "In good time" a slow cooker cookbook. I always make it as posted. You can not go wrong with this one. The leftovers come out great. A must make if you want something really good while watching your weight. Thanks, ChipotleChick for posting.
