Beef Stew

This recipe came from my freshman roommate, Jacqie. We ate this stew at her sister's house one Sunday, and I had to get the recipe. It has a creamy base instead of broth, and as always, it's easy and delicious. Great for throwing in the crock pot on Sunday morning. You can put it in a bread bowl, or serve homemade rolls on the side.
