Betty's Rich Beef Italian Casserole image

Chunky pieces of beef cooked in a rich Italian styled tomato sauce. Serve with creamy polenta or mash with crusty bread and steamed veggies. Perfect on a chilly night. I have baked this and used the slow cooker/croc pot. If using the croc pot use only ONE tin of tomatoes.

While the recipe was easy to follow, the long cooking time was a bit of a drawback. I would recommend setting aside a good amount of time if you are planning to make this dish.

The secret is in the details with this recipe. The addition of red wine and sun-dried, oil-packed tomates adds a depth of flavor that takes this dish from good to great.

As a novice home cook, I found this casserole recipe a bit challenging. While the end result was worth the effort, I would recommend it to experienced cooks rather than beginners.
