Food Super easy beef stew...hello, comfort food!

[Pursegrrl]

Serves 6!

DON'T PEEK STEW

2 lbs stew meat
1/2 C red wine
1 package onion soup mix (dry)
1 10 1/2 oz can mushroom soup
2 4 oz cans mushrooms or equivalent fresh

Just preheat your oven to 300 degrees, mix everything in an ovenproof pan, cover and bake 3 hours. It's great over rice or noodles!

I'm interested- What kind of mushroom soup do you use?!

 

[Pursegrrl]

^^ Ooops sorry about that...just regular cream of mushroom soup works great!

^^ It makes the house smell SO good while it's cooking! And you can definitely vary it your own way with different spices...

^^ as long as you don't use TOO big of a baking pan, you're golden. Meaning, the meat won't burn as there's enough liquid for it to roast in.

I use a 3 quart rounded baking bowl (older calphalon hard anodized) with a lid. It's deep enough for the stew to really stew, rather than a larger pan where everything would get too spread out and potentially burn.

ENJOY!! It truly is foolproof.

this is basically the same as my beef stew, but my variation uses beer, plus the cream of mushroom soup, brown gravy packet, onion soup mix packet, and i use onions, carrots, and celery instead of the mushrooms. i cook mine in the slow cooker. it's sooo yummy, and you are right, it's great comfort food.
