Stew & Cheese Biscuits

Mmm, my family's favorite in the winter!!

Stew
1 pkg of stewing beef
3 TBSP flour
3 Carrots sliced
3 Celery stalks, chopped
3 Potatoes, cubed
1 Onion, chopped
1 clove minced garlic
2 Bay leaves
Seasoning salt
Pepper
Water to cover

I don't really measure, I just add lots of veggies & go from there!! Nor do I measure the seasonings. Add what you like ;) Put the beef & flour in your slow cooker & stir to coat. Toss everything else in, then cover it with water, enough to cover everything. Throw a lid on, turn it up to high & leave it. You may have to add more flour later on to thicken it up.



Biscuits
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
4 tsp baking powder
1 TBSP sugar
1/2 cup butter
2/3 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded cheese

Preheat oven to 425 F. Grease cookie sheet. Add dry ingredients, then cut in butter. Add milk & stir until ball forms. Turn out onto floured surface & knead. Roll out to 1/2" thickness, & cut out biscuits (use drinking glass). Bake for 15 - 20 minutes.
