First off I want to say that while we ate this tonight my hubby said, "Hon, I have a new favorite." So there's that. And it is so flavorful and delicious, I will agree with him. It's easy to make, also, and you will want to float around your house on the aromas this stew gives off while cooking! I opted to leave out the potatoes, as others did, since I was going to serve it over mashed potatoes anyway, and substituted 8 oz of thickly sliced cremini mushrooms. After having trouble finding "Burgundy" wine, except for a cheap jug, I learned that Pinot Noir is the grape they use to make Burgundy in Burgundy, and I used a bottle of a lovely, drinkable one. This recipe is going into my forever file, and I look forward to making it for company. Thanks, BK and Nana, what an amazing recipe!

I am a very lucky lady. I recently moved to a very small town in New Brunswick, Canada with my wonderful husband who is my best friend.
Very fortunate to have a cherished son, wonderful daughter in law and adorable granddaughter and cute wee grandson. We are very blessed.
A big thank you to everyone that has made my recipes... hope you enjoyed them.
