Ingredients
3 pounds beef chuck, cut into chunks
2 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
4–5 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups beef broth (low sodium optional)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried herbs (e.g., rosemary, thyme, or Italian seasoning)
Instructions
Chop the onion and garlic
Brown the beef chuck in olive oil in a pan (optional for flavor enhancement)
Place browned beef in the crockpot
Add onion, garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper to the crockpot
Pour in beef broth
Cook on low for 6-8 hours
Add fresh spinach 30 minutes before planned serving (lid closed), allowing it to wilt
Adjust seasoning to taste after cooking
Notes
Use boneless chuck for even cooking. Double the recipe for easy meal prep. Add spinach late to avoid overcooking. If using a low-sodium broth, add extra salt toward the end. Store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 4 days or freeze for 2-3 months
