Slow Cooker Chunky Beef Stew is chock full of veggies, beef, and flavor! Comfort food at its very best, you'll love this recipe. Freezer friendly too!

I would consider this tomato-based stew a comfort food. Even though it was mid-summer, a nice stew sounded so good. Another bonus is that this is a slow cooker recipe, so no need to have a hot pot of bubbling stew on the stove. You can make it earlier on in the day or cook from frozen.
