21 Day Fix Approved Low Calorie Beef Stew

I'm all about easy recipes to feed my crew and when they're this yummy, plus low in calories it's a defiant keeper. Give it a try and tell me what you think and hey, while you're at it why not share the recipe with a friend too! I'm making it to my goal weight 21 days at a time. Goal weight by 12/31/15!
RECIPE FOR THE 21 DAY FIX APPROVED LOW CALORIE BEEF STEW

INGREDIENTS:
To purchase the 21 Day Fix go to my
site at www.coachdannon.com
  1. 2 lbs stew beef
  2. 2 cups water
  3. 2 Tbsp olive oil
  4. 1 Tbsp Worcestershire
  5. 3 Potatoes or sweet potatoes diced
  6. 1 clove garlic minced
  7. 1 bay leaf
  8. 1 Med onion diced
  9. 1 tsp sugar
  10. 1 tsp salt
  11. 1/2 tsp black pepper
  12. 1/2 tsp paprika
  13. 3 lg carrots diced
  14. 3 celery stalks chopped
  15. 2 Tbsp cornstarch
  16. dash cayenne pepper
COOK IT UP:
In a large stew pot brown meat in olive oil, add water, Worcestershire, garlic, bay leaf, salt, onion, black pepper, cayenne, and sugar cover and simmer 1 1.2 hours.
Remove bay leaf.
Add carrots and celery, cover and cook 30-40 minutes depending on how tender you like your vegetables.
To thicken gravy remove 2 cups of liquid. Using a separate bowel combine 1/4 cup water and corn starch until smooth. Return to pot. Stir and cook until bubbly.
**You can also make this in the crockpot just throw all the ingredients in and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Make sure you take the bay leaf out before you serve.** NOTE: I add low cal veggies towards the end of cooking to get a serving or two of vegetables in without adding a lot of calories. (green beans, yellow squash, zucchini, etc...).
