Diane'S Gone All Afternoon Beef Stew - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 lb. stewing beef, cubed or boneless chuck
3 medium carrots, sliced
3 onions, chopped
3 potatoes, peeled and quartered
1/2 soup can water
1 (10 3/4 oz.) can condensed tomato soup (undiluted)
1 tsp. salt
dash of pepper
1 bay leaf
1/4 c. dry red wine or cooking sherry

Preparation

Put beef, carrots, onions, potatoes, soup, water, salt, pepper, bay leaf and wine in a lightly greased (I use Pam) 3-quart casserole dish with tight fitting lid.
There is no need to brown meat first.
Mix ingredients together.
Cover tightly.
Bake in a preheated 275\u00b0 oven for 5 hours.
