--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  2      pounds        stew meat
  1      package       onion soup mix -- dry
  1      can           cream of mushroom soup
  1      can           ginger ale
  1      pound         carrot
  1      pound         potato

Mix the meat and soups together.  At this point I will divide into 4 portions
(cooking for 2 adults and 1 toddler)  and freeze in ziplock baggies.

The night before cooking day, I'll pull the baggie out of the freezer and pour
into crockpot and cover with 1/2 can of gingerale (I have done this with the
meat mix frozen, but thawed is probably healthier).  Then I'll add carrots and
potatoes and let cook all day on medium heat.  If I know that I'll be in a
major hurry on cooking morning, I'll cut the potatoes and carrots the night
before and have them in the 'fridge in water with a little lemon juice to
prevent the potatoes from  browing.
