Hearty and Flavorful Beef Stew is meaty and delicious. The perfect one-pot dish to warm up the coldest nights!! #beefstew #onepotdish

With the last holiday party behind us, and last decoration put away, it's time to get back to simple and easy meals again.  The cold dark nights of winter call for substantial, nourishing, and filling meals.  This hearty beef stew definitely answers the call.

The wonderful, mouthwatering aroma filling the air makes it hard to wait for the stew to be ready.  A warm bowl of tender beef, veggies, spices, and red wine all melded together is comfort food at its best.

Using a Dutch oven works perfectly for preparing the stew.  You can do all the cooking needed in the Dutch oven, making it an easy one-pot meal.  And with just one pot to clean, what could be better than that?

This recipe takes a total of 2 hours from start to finish, but 90 minutes of that is inactive cooking time.  Meaning that once you've prepped the ingredients, browned the beef and started the veggies cooking, the stew practically cooks itself.

To make this hearty beef stew even more substantial, you could serve it with crusty bread, dumplings, or mashed potatoes.  We had mashed potatoes on hand so I added some to each serving to soak up the rich, flavorful sauce.

Any leftover will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days.  You may find the leftovers to be even tastier since the flavors have even more time to meld together.

Jim is not a big fan of tomatoes, so he would have preferred less tomatoes and more mushrooms.  I, on the other hand, love tomatoes so I thought the amount of tomatoes was just about right.

This hearty beef stew is a great one-pot dish to warm up even the coldest nights.  Give it a try and let me know what you think.
