Dinner of champions

Today, one word rang through my head, constantly, and that word was "stew". I'm not sure why I had stew on the brain. Could be the smell of Stan's stew after lunch. Could be me fantasizing about how I'd like to eat my first potato after my paleo challenge is over. Stew just seemed like a logical conclusion. To top it off, I haven't ever actually made "a stew of my own".

I thus present to you my very first stew, and a paleo friendly stew at that. The main ingredients are:

• Stew beef chunks (3#)
  
• Onion (2 medium)
• Green zuccini (2 regular I guess)
• Diced tomatoes (2 cans)
  
• Cilantro
• Carrots
• Jalapenos
• Red Peppers
• "Italian seasoning - salt free"
• Cayenne pepper
• Other stuff I'm likely forgetting

All in all it turned out okay for only cooking a total of 2 hours or so. My plan is to leave it on low overnight to let it all juice up and then put it in some tupperware in the morning. My only immediate criticisms are the meat is a little too tough, hopefully that will be remedied in the morning. The carrots are way crunchy, again should be more than solved in the morning. The jalapenos and onions have lost most if not all their flavor and only provide a crunch. That's probably just because it's all been incorporated into the conglomerate flavor that is "stew".
