Slow Cooker New Brunswick Stew

This is a soup/stew that I used to make when we lived in the Dominican Republic years ago. Many years ago. It’s super delicious and super budget friendly! And perfect with a side of dinner rolls or a hunk of crusty loaf bread! Mmmmmm!

 

This recipe freezer friendly – so make up a batch for dinner and double it up and freeze what you don’t eat!
