Beef Stew

This is a regular go to meal for us during the cold winter months.  And don't be wierded out by the Western Family Seasoning Packet.  It makes it the perfect consistency, and has great flavor.  And yes, it must be Western Family.  This is probably the only time in my life that I will tell you that a certain brand matters.

2-3 carrots, sliced
1 onion, diced
1 lb. stew meat
2 cloves garlic
2 bay leaves
