2 lbs. venison, cubed
1 tsp. dried onion flakes
2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. thyme
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
3 potatoes, cut into chunks
4 carrots, cut into chunks
1 apple, chopped
1 c. tart apple cider

Brown the venison in a skillet, sprinkling on the onion, salt, thyme and nutmeg while stirring continually. Transfer the seasoned meat to a crock pot or stew pot, add the vegetables and apple, then pour the cider over the top. Slow cook on very low heat for at least 3 hours. If too much liquid begins to evaporate, add mixture of 1/2 water with 1/2 cup cider. Serves 4.
