French Onion Beef

by Carrie on September 3, 2009

This is the first week in a while that I have really been in the mood to cook, and to try other things besides comfort foods. I got this Pillsbury booklet in the mail and a bunch of recipe looked simple and really yummy. We decided to go with this recipe before because we still have a bunch of beef, and we love mushrooms.

This recipe was AWESOME! I honestly cannot rave about it enough, nor wait to make it again!!! The beef we have so far has been pretty tough, I was expecting the same with this… it was not, you could barely pick it up with a fork because it just fell apart, and the flavors were just amazing. I was so hungry I forgot to put the cheese on mine, Adam had his and did and said it was also awesome. Next time I would make a little gravy with the drippings for mashed potatoes and double the stuffing because I didn’t feel it made enough.

But it was wonderful! Delicious, flavorful, and simple.
