Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 lb beef chuck cut into chunks
2 sweet potatoes ( about 1 lb) cut into 1/2-inch-thick half-moons
28 oz can whole peeled tomatoes
1 large red onion cut into wedges
1/2 cup dried apricots
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp cayenne
kosher salt
10 oz box couscous (1 1/2 cups)
15 oz can chickpeas rinsed
2 cup baby spinach (1 1/2 oz)
1/4 cup roasted almonds chopped

Directions:

In a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker, combine the beef, potatoes, tomatoes (and their juices), onion, apricots, cumin, ginger, cinnamon, cayenne, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup water.
Cook, covered, until the meat is tender, on high for 4 to 5 hours, or on low for 7 to 8 hours.
Ten minutes before serving, prepare the couscous according to the package directions.
Add the chickpeas to the slow cooker and cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the spinach. Serve with the couscous and sprinkle with the almonds.
To freeze: Omit the couscous and spinach. Cool the beef to room temperature and divide among freezer containers or bags. Freeze for up to 3 months.
To reheat: Thaw in a bowl of cold water or overnight in the refrigerator. Cook in a pot, covered, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 20 to 30 minutes. Stir in the spinach. Serve with the cooked couscous.
