HeartSmart Old-Fashioned Beef Stew - 7 pts
1 pound lean beef stew meat, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon canola oil
3 cups reduced-sodium beef broth, divided
3 cups onion, thinly sliced
2 cups mushrooms, sliced
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
1/2 cup dry red wine

2 cups russet potatoes, cubed
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon cold water
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

Korean Spicy Beef and Kimchi Stew - 9 pts
1 1/2 pounds boneless chuck roast or beef tenderloin, cut into 1 1/2-
inch chunks
2 large garlic cloves, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
1 tablespoon peeled minced fresh ginger
3/4 cup water
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons sugar or mirin
2 cups chopped jarred kimchi
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted, for garnish
2 tablespoons chopped scallions for garnish
3 cups cooked rice
1. Turn the heat to high under a large skillet that can later be
covered. Add the beef cubes a few at a time and brown well, adjusting
the heat so the meat browns but does not burn and turning beef to
brown on all sides; this will take about 10 minutes. Remove the meat
to a plate when it is done, and turn the heat to low.
2. Add garlic and ginger to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally,
until the garlic colors, about 2 minutes. Add the water, then the soy
sauce and either sugar or mirin. Add the meat and bring to a boil;
cover, reduce heat, and simmer.
3. Adjust the heat so the mixture simmers steadily but not violently
and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender, 50 minutes,
depending on the cut you used (tenderloin cooks much faster than
chuck). Add the kimchi, and cook 10 minutes or until heated through.
(You can prepare the dish several hours in advance up to this point.
Cover and set aside until you're ready to eat, then reheat; or cover
and refrigerate overnight before reheating.)
4. Uncover, then taste and adjust seasoning. Stir in sesame oil,
sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions, and serve immediately over
cooked rice.
Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 1 cup stew mixture and 1/2 cup rice)
Prep: 15 minutes; Cook: 1 hour, 12 minutes.

This recipe is high in sodium (due to the soy sauce and the kimchi),
so if high blood pressure is a concern for you, omit the soy sauce,
which will bring the sodium down about 200 milligrams.

Get some stew meat, marinade in itilian dressing overnight. Mix flour, spices(what you like) dredge meat in flour mixture, cook over med. high heat & brown all sides. Add taters, carrots, onions, celery, (what you like). Add enough water to cover, bring to a boil, simmer with a lid until veggies are tender.
I usually do homemade, but, you can just buy the "beef stew" packet in the spice aisle of the grocery store.
It gives you all the instructions you need for great beef stew.
