You asked for it.
I delivered.
Mom lives on.
Ingredients:
2-2 1/2 lbs. Chuck (for stew, lean)
2 – jars (or cans) of Onions, plus the juice
2 – jars (or cans) of Carrots, plus the juice
2-3 lbs. Potatoes, skinned, cubed and microwaved for 7-9 minutes
2- cans of tomato soup
1- can of Beef Consomme
opt. tarragon, Worcestershire sauce, ground clove, basil (my touch)
Saute beef in butter until brown.
Add onions, carrots, water (or beef consomme) to cover beef. (don’t worry about adding too much liquid, it cooks off)
Simmer all for 1 – 1 1/2 hours.
Add potatoes and cook for 3/4 of an hour or until beef is tender (and potatoes!)
Add the tomato soup and heat through.
Serve with a nice, warm and crusty loaf of bread and a glass of aged Merlot and see a sliver of heaven. Nice.

YUM YUM PIGS BUM!!!
only one thing…how much is in jars of onions and carrots? we have carrots in cans, but not onions i’m afraid…
and the other thing is, it’s summer here so i’ll either have to cook it late one night when it cools down {assuming it does} or wait a while…i hate waiting so it may be a late night session…
wonderful idea to post things like this…good thinking batman

I made stew on Sunday. Except I substituted wine for tomato soup, and used fresh carrots and onions. Damn it turned out good! My f-i-l had several helpings and couldn’t stop about how delicious it was. “Best meal you ever made” was the rating given by the hubs. Thanks!
