2 lb. beef stew meat
8 to 10 potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 onion, cut into cubes
1 lb. baby carrots
1 env. dry onion soup mix
1 pkg. brown gravy mix
1 pkg. HIDDEN VALLEY® Ranch dressing mix
1 can Pepsi or Coke
1 can cream of mushroom soup

Put potatoes in bottom of crockpot, top with carrots, onion, and meat. Mix dry ingredients together, sprinkle over meat. Pour soda over meat. Top with soup and cook covered on high 4 to 5 hours or 8-10 hours on low or till meat and vegetables are done.

This makes enough for 6 people. I often use 3 pounds of beef.
