Ingredients:
2 pounds of stewing beef, cut into 1" cubes
4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into thick rounds (about ¼" thick slices)
5 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into ½" pieces
2 medium sized onions, peeled and diced
2 cans of condensed tomato soup
2 cans of low sodium beef broth
¾ cup dry red wine (I prefer red Bordeaux)
2 teaspoons of salt
½ teaspoon of pepper
½ teaspoon dried basil,
¼ teaspoon oregano,
1 teaspoon sugar

Instructions:
Using a large Dutch oven, brown the meat in hot fat, and set it aside. Pour out any remaining fat; add the meat back to the pot, the two cans of soup, the two cans of broth and all the remaining ingredients. Bring to a simmer, and cook for 1-½ to 1-¾ hours. About half way through, be sure and taste to season for additional salt, basil, oregano or pepper. Like I said, this dish is easy! You may need to add a little water if it looks like it is drying out.

About 20 minutes before serving, if it looks a little too thin for your liking (Jay likes thick stews), you can always add a little roux in the last 15 minutes on the stove.

As a meal, (as opposed to an afternoon snack for skiers) I like to serve this stew with a romaine lettuce salad, German potato dumplings and hot bread.
