Updated 2018 with Instant Pot instructions

Slow cooker season is in full swing. Anyone else excited? This beef tips and gravy recipe is why I love slow cooker recipes. It’s the ultimate comfort food but that doesn’t mean it has to be unhealthy.

I recently did a little bit of shopping at the online grocery store, iHerb. When I say, ‘a little bit’, what I really mean is I spent a little bit of money but I got a lot of healthy ingredients return. Don’t you love that kind of shopping?!? I also love that iHerb carries over 5,000 healthy grocery products so they’re pretty much a one-stop shop; I got most of the ingredients for this recipe in one purchase. And delivered 2 days later.

This is all about the homemade gravy. I tried to keep it as healthy as possible hence the low-sodium grass-fed bone broth, organic ghee, organic seasonings, and a homemade slurry using arrowroot starch/flour.

Slurries are great ways to thicken up your slow cooker recipes. Most people use cornstarch or white flour however because this is a whole30 & paleo compliant recipe, I used arrowroot. The ratio is 1-part arrowroot, 2 parts water.

How thick do you like your gravy? If you like thicker gravy then use a little more slurry. Don’t worry, this won’t alter the taste.

    Super easy and delicious recipe! I think the cumin really makes it. I made a freezer pack to have on hand for an easy meal after I give birth in a couple months. Can’t wait to try more recipes.
