Question

It's too hot to use the oven.

It's too hot to use the oven. Recipes have to be from scratch... I have a food allergy and can't use pre-packaged, convenience foods.

There are thousands of slow cooker recipes floating around. One that we love very much is beef and noodles.
Beef and Noodles
2 packages au jou mix mixed with the recommended amount of water on the pkgs
2 lbs beef stew meat in 1" chunks or whatever size you like the best
One large pkg or 2 small pkgs of frozen noodles or if you have the time home made noodles. The pkgs of dried noodles won't be as good but if that is all you have access to they will work iin a pinch.

Mix the 2 pkgs of au jou mix with the water and put in slow cooker with the stew meat and turn on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours. During the last hour add the frozen noodles to the mixture and turn onto high for another 40 minutes to an hour.

This is for a large slow cooker. For the more standard size halve the recipe. It will work just fine. It is a forgiving meal and won't hurt to cook longer it simply makes the beef more tender. Do not add salt to this recipe as the au jou is quite salty but pepper to taste.

The slow cooker liner makes cleaning up a snap!

Add the roast and the garlic. Mix around til covered with soup mix. Add the onions and veggies. Add water to barely cover the veggies (remember the water level may go up during cooking!).
