I put this together last night, using ingredients from my pantry. It was very easy and delicious.
6-ingredient Crockpot Stew
2 large pork-chops, cooked and chopped into small pieces
4 potatoes, scrubbed, peeled and chopped
1 pkg. (10 oz) frozen spinach (you could also used fresh, I just happened to have frozen spinach on hand)
1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
1 1/2 to 2 cups of beef broth
1 (14 oz) can of chickpeas (or any type of bean will do)
Put the ingredients in the crockpot and stir well to combine. Cook on low for 8 hours. Season to taste with salt and pepper. I didn’t add salt and thought it was just fine. Serve with a crusty bread.
You could also serve this over rice. If you want the soup to have more liquid, simply add more broth. My children really loved it.
If you want to try your hand or spoon at kneadless bread which is seriously so easy that a child could do it, this is the recipe I use. http://steamykitchen.com/168-no-knead-bread-revisited.html The column is a little long, but the recipe at the end is more than worth the read. Just remember to plan ahead. You have to start the bread about 24 hours before you want to eat it. Yesterday, after eating dinner with the family, I chopped up the remaining pork chops (minus the bones) and assembled the stew in the crockpot. I put the crockpot in the refrigerator and then mixed up the bread. It took me all of 15 minutes to make the stew and mix up the bread.
