Puerto Rican Beef Stew in Slow Cooker
puerto rican beef stew recipe Puerto Rican Beef Stew in Slow Cooker Over the years I've learned a few tips and tricks for making traditional Puerto Rican recipes from my mother in law.  This Puerto Rican Beef Stew Recipe was one of the first recipes she taught me and it is AMAZING!   When Hubs and I first got married, I wasn't much of a cook...so the first 5 years of our marriage consisted of me trying out recipes and praying they would be edible.  My mother in law gave me a new Puerto Rican cookbook every time we went to visit...the hint was not lost on me.  I needed to start cooking right so her son and future grandchildren wouldn't starve.   I'm proud to say, I've made HUGE strides in the cooking department. So, if you're new to cooking, my best advice to you is to just keep trying...it will get better.   Now, this Puerto Rican Beef Stew recipe is a staple in my recipe rotation.  Not only is it delicious, but it's so simple to make!   This simple 4-ingredient slow cooker chicken with stuffing is the perfect dinner recipe. Add in frozen green beans for a one dish meal the whole family will love! These amazing slow cooker chicken breast recipes will have your family begging for more!
