Five Ingredient Beef Tips with Gravy

Normally, I would sear the meat and make this recipe from scratch. Time was of the essence today, so I grabbed a few cans of soup and chucked in the beef stew meat that comes already cut in a package at the store. No browning, no special seasonings. Just open, pour, stir, and cook.

Weeknight meals that are delicious and still homemade are just wonderful to come home to.

How to Make Beef Tips in the Slow Cooker

This takes just two cans of soup: cream of mushroom and French onion, a bit of water and beef tips. Add that to the slow cooker. Set it and forget it.

When the beef is tender, they are done.

If you would like a saucy and thick gravy, mix a tablespoon of corn starch or flour with two tablespoons of water. Add that to the beef tip mixture to thicken the gravy. I let this do its magic while I make the mashed potatoes, pasta, or rice and my vegetable side dishes.

Within 30 minutes of coming home, we are enjoying this warm and hearty meal.
