Tantalizing Tuesday No Peeking Beef Tips

No Peeking Beef Tips from Fix-It and Forget-It Slow-Cooker Magic

2 pounds stew meat, cut into bite-size pieces
2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1.25 oz. envelope dry onion soup mix
12 oz can lemon lime soda
1 can cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
Cooked Rice or Egg noodles

Cook meat in hot oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned on all sides. Place meat in slow cooker. Sprinkle dry onion soup mix over meat. Combine soda and cream of mushroom soup over meat, beinc areful not to disturb the onion soup mix. Cover and cook on high 4 hours, and server over rice or noodles. Variation: For a creamier version, replace soda with 1 cup of sour cream.

Changes!!! Okay, nothing is ever good unless you SEASON IT!!!!!! Cook your meat, but be sure to season to taste with some salt and pepper. Then throw it into your crock pot. I added a diced onion because onion is good, and sauted it till cooked, and deglazed the pan with some red wine. Then put the onions in the crockpot and poured over the onion soup mix. I mixed the soda and the soup together, and then poured it over the meat. VERY IMPORTANT! DO NOT taste the soup and soda mix. It will gross you out and you will wonder what I'm getting you in to. I added 2 big Tbsp of Sour cream to the mix to make it a bit creamier. I also cooked this on low for about 6 hours instead of on high. I also added some frozen peas during the last 15 minutes and turned it up on high, for a 1 dish dinner (for the most part).
