I found the original recipe in EVERYDAY FOOD December 2004 and prepared it while living in West Laurens.. The original recipe did not call for tortellini or carrots, though. I found the recipe again today and tried it again! Peggy raved about it.
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 can diced tomatoes with garlic, basil and oregano (28 ounces)
- 1 large onion, cut into 8 wedges
- some italian seasoning and some TRADER JOES 21 Seasoning Salute, salt and pepper
- 2-3 lbs stew meat from chuck roast
- couple small white potatoes, scrubbed
- fresh carrots scrubbed and cut into large pieces (halved)
- one can mushrooms
- chopped celery and some chopped green pepper
- minced garlic
- ketchup
- one package of cheese Tortellini from Aldi's (8.8 ounces)
- one heaping tbsp of brown sugar
I browned the meat well (in the oil) and placed in crockpot with the onion, tomatoes, seasonings, carrots and celery and green pepper and garlic. Added a large dollop of Ketchup, stirred and put crockpot on LOW, cooked for several hours. I added the brown sugar about halfway through. I added the tortellini for the last hour, and the mushrooms for the last fifteen minutes (along with a second dollop 0f ketchup)
