BEEF STEW 
2 lb. stew meat
1/2 c. flour
2 c. potatoes
1 c. turnips
1 c. carrots
1/2 c. parsnips
1 c. celery
1 green pepper
1 onion
Salt & pepper to taste
2 bouillon cubes
Bay leaf

Roll meat in flour and brown in hot fat in frying pan. Put in crock pot and add 1 quart of water. Simmer 2 hours. Cut vegetables in small pieces and add. You may put the onion with the meat and cook the vegetables in microwave and then add to the crock pot and continue slow-cooking.

The salt and pepper, bouillon cubes and bay leaf may then be added or added when vegetables are cooking. Thicken if desired. This combination of vegetables makes a very good flavor.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
