I just ate a bite of this. I was trying not to. I’m going out to breakfast soon but I woke up to the beautiful smell of meat in my house, so I couldn’t help myself. That would just be stupid to not try it. Meat in the morning is the best way to start the day. Oh go on, giggle to yourself you pervert. Real original.
There are a lot of things that freak me out in this world. Like a lot. I could make a list of all of them, since I like to do that, but that would make me look like a freak. And I wouldn’t want that happen now would I??! Anywho, I sometimes like to think about all the weird stuff in the world. It’s fun. Like Tom Cruise’s hair. It moves a lot. Especially when he’s trying to look young and hip in action movies. Why wouldn’t you cut your hair for that? But seriously. Stop being unattractive just because you have a wife and child. You know what else is freaky? Cars that parallel park themselves. How does that make any sense?! No but seriously. I live in Colorado. If you didn’t know, it snows in Colorado. You expect me to feel comfortable with my car driving itself into a parking space around other cars?! You must be high Toyota. High as an effing kite.
Now let’s talk about some things that really matter. Like what freaks me out in a guy. Jake says I’m never going to date anyone because I have unrealistic standards. Which is true. But there are a few things that will never be acceptable to me in a guy. Like a guy who shaves his legs. Or wears puca shell necklaces. Or pierces his nipples. All three of those things freak me out. I’m lucky to have my own legs shaved…but a guy who has the time to shave his own, that’s just stupid. Dudes are suppose to have hairy legs. They’re suppose to be fuzzy. So when a guy looks like a naked rat, I know it’s never going to work.
Has anyone noticed that there are a stupid amount of Cutie’s clementine commercials? Ugh, please stop. We get it, kids like peelable fruit.
I want dark chocolate walnuts.
Paleo Crockpot Beef and Mushroom Stew
Ingredients
- 1.5–2lbs beef stew meat
- 1 package sliced button mushrooms
- 1 package whole shiitake mushrooms
- 1 package baby portobello mushrooms
- 1 sweet potato, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed (use the flat part of a knife. be smart here people)
- 1 cup pearl onions, placed in warm water for 5 minutes then peeled
- 1 cup chicken or beef broth (or water if you don’t have that on hand)
- 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 tablespoons onion powder
- 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried sage
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- This is pretty simple, so if you get lost, I pity you.
- Pull out your crockpot.
- Place all mushrooms, garlic, and pearl onions in the bottom of your crockpot. If you are still trying to find the best crock pot out there, you can find some coupons for a quality crockpots at Best Buy!
- Throw meat and sweet potatoes on top.
- Add the rest of your ingredients. I just put all the spices on top of the meat and sweet potatoes. The meat juices will run down onto the musrhooms while the sweet potatoes won’t get mushy since they are on top of all the wet ingredients.
- Cook at low for 6-8 hours.
- Eat up!

i’m a new follower of yours. yay you! you’ve got another one. i’ve never replied to a blog before. yay you again! this post had me cracking up for two reasons:
1) i am that unoriginal pervert who when reading the first paragraph thought to myself, “yep. just what every girl wants first thing in the morning. a nice piece of meat.” i work as pastry cook, this joke never gets old in the kitchen. at least to me.
2) as i read your last paragraph, i thought, “hmm, what freaks me out in a guy? well for starters, if he doesn’t shave his legs.” HA! i come to crossfit from a cycling background. i spent 10 years around boys who shave. no icky hair brings out the definition of finely chiseled muscles.
i find you amusing. i know you do too, and that’s awesome. thanks for all the great recipe ideas and clever posts!
Probably the best thing I’ve eaten recently! Perfect post wod meal, thank you 🙂
I feel like dancing after that crockpot goodness! You good Juli, real good
Gonna make this for sure. Based on the pics, it doesn’t look like you peeled the potato. True JB?
truth
Righteous young jb. We’re out here in west Fla loving your food/blog. I think a friend of mine met u in tx.
OH NO, what happened? I made this and it had a terrible taste with a faint vinegar bitterness. It lacked any body and taste. Can’t figure out how to salvage it. Too bad, I’ve made so many good dishes from this site. Maybe some bacon would have added flavor?
I have no clue! This is a super flavorful dish so I’m not sure why yours would not be
Ok.. so I giggled..
Going to try this, this weekend,
Trying this out today 🙂 Love it, you are hilarious, I always bust out laughing when reading your blog.
I am sharing this with anyone who will listen. My husband and I LOVED it. It was so flavorful and delicious. I made it twice this month!
You are a good cook. But even a better comedian!
Is there another type of beef you recommend besides stew meat? The last time I used it in beef stew it was SO chewy and not tender at all 🙁
stew meat breaks down in a crockpot and is super tender. the longer it cooks, the less chewy it is! so you won’t get chew with this recipe
