Lazy Beef and Gravy Casserole

Submitted by MA in Florida

"A delicious gravy forms during the cooking of this very easy and tender beef dish. (I got this recipe out of the American Heart Association Cookbook back in the '80's and have made it many, many times. I like the long cooking time because I can get so many other things done while the meat is cooking. (I would imagine it could be done in a crockpot, but I have never done it.)"

You weren't kidding about the delicious gravy, were you? It was very, very good! The addition of the bread crumbs and flour was interesting and really effective. I doubled the recipe, and was glad I did, because everyone had seconds. I served it over wide egg noodles and it was enjoyed all around. Thanks for posting!

I have been making this recipe several times a year from my old yellowed (40 or so years old) AHA cookbook. I have served it to many people and have never found anyone who didn't devour it! I do it on Low in the crock-pot for eight hours, and serve it on white rice. I leave out the pepper and let folks season it to their taste at the table.
