Beef Stroganoff

I remember while a member of a church in Dallas, they had this recipe for beef stroganoff which was out of this world. About a month ago, I got hungry for it so, after looking through recipes, I came up with my own. I use my crock pot to cook the beef and other ingredients. The crock pot made the meat very tender. If you are going to feed a large group, then use this recipe, because as most of you readers know, I do not cook for a small group.

5 pounds cube stew meat. (you can find this in your favorite grocery store)
2 large onions diced
1 package sliced mushrooms
3 cloves garlic (minced)
2 cups of red wine (I used a Merlot)
1 family size can of cream of mushroom soup
salt and pepper to taste.

Place all of these ingredients in a crock pot (don't brown the meat) and cook on low overnight and most of the next day. If the sauce is soupy, you can add the noodles to absorb the moisture. When ready to serve, add the sour cream and serve with a salad and fresh homemade bread.

Until next time.
