Slow Cooker Italian Beef & Swiss Chard Ragu {Plus, Bonus Soup Recipe}

By Kelly · 1 Comment

It’s no surprise that I’m a huge proponent of the Whole30 program. Many of you have joined me for The Whole30 Challenge and know firsthand how a whole food lifestyle can completely transform your health and wellness.

That’s why I couldn’t be more thrilled to share some awesome news … The team at Whole30 is excited about the recipes and resources I’ve been sharing with y’all, so they’ve asked me to be a guest contributor to their website and share a four-part Slow Cooker Series. Woot!

So each week for the next four weeks, I’ll be sharing a savory new slow cooker meal that’s as easy to prepare as it is delicious! (And let me assure you, these recipes are family-friendly, whole food meals that the whole family will love – whether they’re GF or not!) 

First up, is this incredibly simple, yet flavorful Italian Beef and Swiss Chard Ragu. The combination of tender, slow-cooked beef and peppery chard paired with slightly sweet, fire-roasted tomatoes and carrots creates an absolutely delectable meal. [Get the recipe here...]

Transform Leftovers into a Delicious Soup!

And because this recipe makes a lot of delicious ragu, I’ve got a tasty way to repurpose the leftovers to create a quick and savory soup perfect for lunch, or pair it with a salad for a satisfying dinner.

It’s super easy … Simply combine a half cup of bone broth for every one cup of leftover ragu. Warm it, and enjoy! Is that easy or what?

Of course, the best thing about this tasty recipe {and each delicious recipe in this series} is that your slow cooker does most of the work. It doesn’t get any easier than that to prepare a healthy & delicious meal the whole family will love! Enjoy!

P.S. If this slow cooker series tickles your fancy, I’d love for you to share this series via social media. Thank you in advance for partnering with me to help to spread the word that a simple whole food lifestyle is a delicious way to transform our health and wellness!
