Crockpot Veggie and Meat Stew

This is a very easy and nutritious meal! The chicken broth makes it light in sodium and less calories than using a creamy base!



Ingredients:
1lb ground turkey (or beef if your prefer) or for lean meat use chicken shredded!
1 bag chopped butternut squash (find in frozen or near the salad section at most stores. If not 3 cups chopped)
3 Carrots sliced
3 stalks celery chopped
1 zucchini sliced
1 onion, chopped
1 box or 2 cans of chicken broth
1 can tomato paste
1 can diced tomatoes
Salt
Pepper
Garlic powder

Directions:
1.       Brown meat if desired (I always like to do this step first, but it doesn’t need to be fully cooked)
2.       Slice and chop the above veggies (you can buy them all pre sliced at most local grocery stores to save time!)
3.       Pour meat, veggies, broth, tomatoes, and tomato paste into crockpot.
4.       Cook on low for 6 hours of high 3-4 (or until you get home).
5.       Serve with some shredded cheese or sour cream J
