This is for you Bonnie!!

Its a Friday night and I really want homemade food. So here is the recipe.

1 lb Stew beef

1/2 C White onion

1/2 C Red Wine (Shiraz is what I used)

1 can Low Sodium Beef Broth

1 t Olive oil

2 t Balsamic Vinegar

The Spices

Salt

Pepper

Onion Powder

Ms Dash Original Blend

Cayenne Pepper

Parsley

Lemon Pepper

Take the meat and the list of spices. Massage them into the meat making sure each piece is coated. Add the olive oil and massage that in as well. Cover with plastic wrap and put in the fridge. I let it marinate for about 2 hours.

Heat some oil in a skillet and coat the beef with flour. Once the oil is rippling, add the beef and onions and brown them. Once all brown, add the wine and broth. Use the can to add water as well. I used about 1 to 1 1/2. Cover and let simmer for 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally. You may need to add some more water to keep meat covered.

Depending on how thick you like your gravy, you may need to make a slurry of water and flour to thicken it. Once you have the desired gravy, add the balsamic at the very end.

Eat it on whatever you feel like. I've done rice, noodles, toast, and tonight I did biscuits. The gravy is so good, you could probably eat it on a flip flop. Enjoy!!!!
