We absolutely love using our slow cooker and make a hearty stew or thick, rich soup. We do this at least twice a week year round. In fact, our crockpot gets such a workout that our kids even come up with their own slow cooker recipes. This Slow Cooker Winter Stew Recipe is one of our new favorites. It is hearty, spicy and tastes amazing.

I love the fall and winter time for soups, thank you for the giveaway, i can’t wait to give this recipe a try.
We love stews and soups this time of year, especially now that it’s so darn cold and football season has kicked into high gear.
That sounds perfect for a cold winter day. I Love anything I can make in a crock pot!
you said crock pot, I am hooked especially over the holidays when I can put something in the crock pot in the am and just finish it up b/f dinner.
Wow this looks delicious and filling too! Thanks for the recipe!
This looks like a great stew to have on cold winter’s day. I am going to have to save this recipe.
Mmm…that looks yummy!
Well, minus the shrimp.
I just can’t put one in my mouth after having them swimming around my fish tank!
I love my Crock Pot and keep telling hubby I need to use it more often. Right now, I only use it for pot roast and chili. Every once in a blue moon I’ll try something different. This sounds like a good (and easy) recipe.
This looks delicious. Love winter for pulling out the Crockpot recipes.
That stew looks really good and hearty. I love that it has shrimp in it!
Your Winter Stew looks amazing with sausage and shrimp! I use the Crock Pot all the time in the winter and fall months too!
This looks like a cozy meal for a chilly fall night. I love shrimp!
Looks like a nice hearty recipe especially for these cooler months ahead!
Wow, that recipe has everything in it. HA! I love it… Thanks for sharing.
That looks delish. Love stews and soups this time of year.
I am literally drooling over that shrimp! This looks SO good!
Looks like good old fashion gumbo going on! That looks so delish!
That really looks good. I use the slow cooker a lot in the winter, but I have never made anything using shrimp. Shrimp is so high priced here I save it for special occasions but this stew does look like it might work well for a potluck and would be imprressive.
Stews are my absolute favorite food in winter. Time to pull out the crockpot!
I am the queen of stew during the winter months! I love that you added shrimp to this! Yum!
I’m all for a hearty stew like that. I love the andouille sausage in this especially.
Yum. I love stew and this looks fantastic.
I love the look of that stew with shrimp. This is going to be made in my household very soon.
