First of all, I must give the credit to my father for this recipe (he is an excellent cook who has helped me with some delicious and simple recipes during the past six weeks of my Paleolithic experience.  Anyways, this is a great stew, and although it seems too simple to be tasty, it tastes even better than non-Paleo stews!  See, the key to this recipe is the crock pot, and having the crock pot sit around for several hours so that the broth and the meat soak up all of the vegetables and spices makes this a mouthwatering stew.  My dad wrote the rest of the recipe, but I should reccomend that allowing the crock pot to sit around heated for 5-7 hours makes this stew unbelievable.

    Simple recipe, but it takes time to cook, and the mini crock pot is awesome...

  A crockpot like this is perfect, but I'm sure you can find it cheaper than this site (See this link): http://www.buy.com/prod/rival-scr200-w-crock-pot-classic-2-quart-slow-cooker-w-recipes-white/q/listingid/87879528/loc/66357/214937317.html

  And once you get a mini-crock pot, there are endless possibilities on broths, stews, and all sorts of other recipes.

 Now it's time for the recipe, sorry...

INGREDIENTS:

Pork (you can cut in (1 inch) chunks or you could cut in ¼ x ¼  x 2 inch strips (like Chinese do) [YOU CAN ALSO USE CHICKEN A SUBSTITUTE]
One carrot (cut in ½ and then 4 strips = 8 strips total)
    -*I don't eat the carrots in the dish, but my dad uses it for a little flavor
One piece of celery cut
One can Rotel Original Tomato – (note the ingredients in other types I didn’t check)
Chili powder
Garlic cloves (minced or cut in ½ doesn’t matter)
Dried Oregano (Tablespoon)
Water (just to fill to cover if needed)
Onion (if desired)
A pinch of salt (You really don't need the salt, but you can put a dash in after if you MUST have it...)
Pepper (if desired.)
 
Crock Pot – The one I used was the $10 small Rival one.Turn ON to HIGH
 
Put carrots and celery in bottom of the crock pot
Add Onion
Add meat
Add pinch of salt
Add garlic
Add Rotel
Add Oregano
Add Chili powder (teaspoon to tablespoon depending) after it’s been cooking for an hour or two
 
Stir the tomato carefully so as not to disturb the carrot and celery on the bottom
 
Every hour or so stir gently (not moving the carrots or celery on bottom.
Continue doing this for 3 hours minimum up to 8 hours max.
 
You may had adjustments depending on how much you are making and/or size of crock pot.
                                 Serve Hot and Enjoy!

Avelin,
    Please let me know how your stew turns out... Cook it for a long time, and it's best right after it finishes cooking... It's surprising how tasty it is, and if you want, you can throw just a little cayenne pepper in there... I made it with some superb pork that came from a local farm, but I might try chicken, lamb or beef next time.

I made up a pot of this, although i made it a bit more robust (more tomato, added home made beef stock, more carrot) using beef and had just finished cooking it when a good friend, who isn't very mobile but had made a huge effort to visit, wanted a taste. My friend liked it so much I let him take it home - it will feed him for a few meals and he can keep off his feet.

I did manage to pour off some of the 'sauce' to use as a spicy stock.

So now you can call it delightfully tasty beef paleo with amazing recuperative powers. What a mouthful!

Mosin, sorry it took me so long to answer your questions,
   With the recipe that I provided, about 2 lbs. plus of pork is what I used... This makes the stew emphasize on meat and fat much more heavily than vegetables, which is what I was intending to accomplish.  I liked eating a bunch of pork and getting a few pieces of vegetables here and there.
     In terms of the "mini-crock pot" and little amount of vegetables making it sound like a "small meal", it certainly is not a small meal.  It took me about three to four meals to eat the entire stew, and if you feel as though it still seems like too small of a stew to spend several hours of time cooking, then just proportionally add more of every ingredient to whatever you are cooking the stew in...
    Anyways, I reccomend less carrot, especially if you are trying to lose weight.  Carrots are one of those vegetables with a more significant amount of carbs and sugars than greeny vegetables.  As for celery, it's fine to add a little more celery if you would like, but it also has a little sugar and carbs... I'm on a VLC diet, so I get my servings of vegetables, but I do mostly salads and greeny vegetables, sometimes tomatoes on special days..
