The recipe for "Couscous w/stew" came from my sister and it's really yummy! Here it is...

2 cans French style green beans, drained
2 cans garbanzo beans, drained
fresh sliced carrots (carrot chips)
1 lb. stew meat or round steak, cut up
1 46oz. can V8 juice
1/4 C. peanut butter

Brown meat, but don't cook all the way through. Put everything in crock pot. Cook on low 8-10 hours or high 5-6 hours. Serve over couscous.

And yes, a couple of these recipes were on our menu last week. I ended up making some last minute changes last week to accomodate our schedule and to use up some leftover things before going out of town for the weekend, so I just moved those meals to this week instead. Made for easy planning this week!
