I am a sucker for vegetable beef stew, so I knew I had to find a way to make it low carb – fast!
Fresh turnips are a great potato alternative which has far fewer carbs and just as much flavor! They are a bit harder to dice up, but if you have not started using ceramic knives yet, this is a great recipe to start!
You can use these same ingredients to make a Low Carb Crockpot Beef Stew as well – just start by cooking the stew meat first, then add in your veggies and seasonings and let cook at least 4 hours. So delicious!
