I love this recipe - very simple but full of flavor coming from beef stock and tomatoes. What intrigued me to this recipe was the addition of beef stock as I've not seen that before and it really works well here. It gives the dish wonderful depth and tomatoes round it out perfectly. I did not cook the beans as long as indicated since I used very thin baby beans. I will be using this recipe often nitko - superb! Thank you for posting this recipe.
