Step 1

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook in batches if necessary, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides.

Step 2

Transfer the beef to a 4-quart slow cooker. Add the carrots, potatoes, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, bay leaf, broth, vegetable juice, and coconut aminos; stir to combine.

Step 3

Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, or until the beef and vegetables are tender.

Step 4

If using the tapioca flour, turn the slow cooker to high. In a small bowl, stir together the tapioca flour and 2 tablespoons of water. Stir into the stew. Cover and cook for 1 additional hour.

Step 5

Remove and discard the bay leaf before serving.
